We'll read books like "Cool Camouflage" a Scholastic book by Lisa M. Herrington and "A Color of His Own" by Leo Lionni , we'll try and spot creatures that are masters of disguise as we look at astounding pictures, learn why and how animals hide using techniques like mimesis and practice hiding chameleons we color in class! Little learners can build great listening, observation and creative thinking skills during storytime, asking questions and using their imagination. In fact, did you know...
Students will listen to stories and look at pictures and ask and answer questions throughout class, practice taking turns talking, listening and sharing observations about animals who like to blend-in. We will also work on our concentration, fine motor and listening skills while we work on our camouflage activity. Learners will find out fun facts about some amazing camouflage animals, strengthen fundamental PreK skills like literacy, listening and sharing, predicting, problem solving, observation and speaking in turn while we talk about these masters of disguise and practice additional fine motor work engaging with the in-class project. **In order to promote class discussions and participation I do not mute learners' microphones. This also helps learners practice their social skills such as active listening and taking turns. In order for this to work, students need to be in a quiet setting away from background noises (loud conversations, telephone calls, t.v, etc.). **

Because of the age of the class I recommend a grown up be within "ear-shot" to help with any technical hiccups (mic and video) that might come up.
