Literature: Fables, Nursery Rhymes and Folklore

Months ago my son & I started a literature notebook, we were reading through the nursery rhymes, fables, etc. We would read them and then accompany them with a craft. Somehow we stopped doing this so when I stubbled across a storyboard felt board box at our library I quickly grabbed it. For the next few weeks we will be reading nursery rhymes, fables, etc. and using The Storyboard Storytelling Case felt board and then accompanying them with a craft. Along with reading the story in the storytelling case I found at Goodwill The Christian Mother Goose Book, that has the same stories but in Christian form.

Here are our resources for the next few weeks:
There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly

The craft came from Enchanted Learning (there is a membership fee)
Mary Had a Little Lamb
The craft idea came from First School
handprint lamb
 Little Miss Muffet

For Itsy Bitsy Spider & Little Miss Muffet we did this craft – spider handprints

Check back next week for more of our literature series!
