This interactive story is fun for multiple purposes:
1) Encouraging Requesting - BEST app ever for this purpose
- Many pictures have multiple actions. For example, on the last page, patting the cat's full tummy, results in:
- burping
- meowing and stretching
- farting!
2) Playing Guess Who Characters
a) First, do a picture walk
b) Next, have each student choose a character from the pictures
- Note, I put the 5 main characters on notes in Sticky app (see below)
c) Read the story, with each student listening for information about their character
d) Have each student write 3 clues about their character, with the first clue more subtle, and the last clue more obvious
e) Remaining students make guesses after each clue
- Note, I made text notes for each set of clues, again using Sticky
Thank you for the great shout out! We have two more apps coming in the very near future, and 2 more early next year. And we have cauldron bubble games that teach kids to recognize letters and we have crosswords If you'd like to test them out - we'd love to have you! Please contact me at janziff@heckerty.com
