Read A Bird Book or Two or Three.
Birdsongs by Betsy Franco takes the reader on a journey from the quiet of morning to the silence of night and invites us to listen to the birds along the way. The woodpecker makes 10 taps on his tree and so on until the hummingbird whispers 1 quiet sound. Engaging read aloud while reinforcing counting skills.
One of my favorite authors is Mo Willems. I love the Elephant & Piggie series and this is one of my favorites. Also a fun read aloud!
