Come join me for this one time interactive class as I read the popular children’s story, Go Away Big Green Monster! by Ed Emberly. During this class, your child will be introduced to the parts of a book. Students will have the opportunity to follow along and join in with me while I read this story. We will discuss the story, focusing on monsters, colors, and the vocabulary for parts of the head. Next, we will complete a monster craft. I will also include an optional PDF of a worksheet to be done after class. I look forward to teaching your child in my virtual classroom!
