Fish Storytime

School-Age Storytime

Books:
Bright Stanley by Matt Buckingham
   This is an okay story but the book sparkles which makes it abit more exciting.
The Three Little Fish and the Big Bad Shark by Ken Geist
   The kids really enjoyed this story. And most of them figured out that it was based on the Three Little Pigs.
Rainbow Fish and the Sea Monsters Cave by Marcus Pfister
   An okay Rainbow Fish book. The kids seem to like Rainbow Fish because they know the character.
The Pout-Pout Fish by Deborah Diesen
   This is a really cute book and the kids liked repeating the "Blub-Bluub-Bluuub"  part with me.
Dogfish by Gillian Shields
   This was definitely the favorite of the fish books. The kids thought it was pretty funny.

Activity:
We made fishing poles with magnets and caught paper fish with paperclips attached to them.

Craft:
Sparkly Fish Puppets

Hooray for Fish! by Lucy Cousins
   A wonderful fish story with lots of unique and colorful fish illustrations.
Good Night, Little Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister
   Not my favorite of the Rainbow Fish books but the kids were excited to read another story about a character they all know.

Flanelboard Rhyme:
Start with 5 fish on the flannelboard.

5 little fish swimmin' in the water,
5 little fish swimmin' in the water,
5 little fish swimmin' in the water.
Bubble, bubble, bubbles, bubbles,
Splash! (One fish swims away.)

4 little fish....
