In this activity, the teacher or therapist reads the story to a small group of students, as students follow along and move the ladybug into the correct position on each page. Students can also attach a matching piece to each page (included and optional). At the end of the story, students answer "wh" comprehension questions using the by matching the correct answer piece to each question page.
Students working at an independent level may read through the spring themed book and work through questions in a literacy center or independent work station. There are several extension activities included for extra practice. (Please see photos and video for details.)
Sample Text:
"Down in the garden, 'neath a tall, green, tree...
a crawly little ladybug was as crawly as can be.
She crawled under dragonfly,
and crawled over a snail.
She crawled beside a worm
who had a wiggle in his tail (SWISH!)
She crawled right past a grasshopper
and crawled below a bee.
She crawled beneath a butterfly
that fluttered high and free!"
(You get the idea!)
