With so many schools closing due to COVID-19, I've been thinking of parents and children who may be stuck at home trying to figure out how to teach and learn together. Here's my way to help: Story Time Online with Paula. I hope you find these videos and ideas helpful, and that you'll share them with others who might like them too!
First, here's the story of the Farmer and the Giant Potato.
Since the story is about a giant potato, here's a potato song I made up.
Did you or your little one notice that I made a pattern with my potatoes? Did your little one count along? What else can you count at home to extend the learning?
Finally, some follow up ideas:
Here's the FREE download I showed you in the video. Use it with the included letter tiles for your little one to match the letters and build the words, or put them up to help your child see how to write these fun vocabulary words as they write a St. Patrick's Day story of their own.
For even more hands on learning at home consider cooking potatoes together! Not only will your child learn how to cook, and develop those fine motor skills and kitchen safety as you do, you'll all have something delicious to enjoy afterwards!
