Kelly is here to read you the story "Hairy Maclary and Zachary Quack"Story time Activities “Hairy Maclary and Zachary Quack” By Lynley Dodd 1. Rhyming is a great way for children to learn about the sounds of language, it introduces emergent readers to word families and it is just plain fun. Look around your house for other rhyming books that you can read together. When you come to the end of a sentence have your child guess the rhyming word before you read it, then say both words together so they can hear the ending sounds. 2. At the beginning of the story Hairy Maclary didn’t want to play with Zachary Quack. By the end of the story the characters were definitely friends, how did that happen? Did Zachary Quack do something to help Hairy Maclary? Friends take good care of each other, maybe you can remember a time when you helped a friend or they helped you. If you like to draw you could draw a picture of that nice memory. 3. Zachary Quack is a very cute little duckling and he always reminds me of the song “The Five Little Ducks”. If you know the song you could teach it to your grown-up, if you don’t there are many examples you could look up online. Happy Singing! Kelly would also love to read you a story called "The Little Gardener" - check out those GORGEOUS illustrations!!!Kelly wants to share a super fun worm activity you can do at home! For those of you who are squeamish rest assured there are no *actual* worms involved in this activity!
