Do you like to walk home alone?

中外作家還蠻喜歡在小朋友"回家"這條路上安排許多驚險的刺激
或是奇遇,知名作家的繪本如英國超現實派插畫家Anthony Browne
安東尼布朗的"The tunnel", 日本林明子的"森林迷藏王", 英國John
Burningham約翰伯明罕的"The boy who was always late"都有好
許多的冒險及趣味,當然我今天介紹給小朋友的"On the way home"
by Jill Murphy可是讓我相當有"fu"的呢~

Story : On the way home by Jill Murphy
Summary:
Claire had a bad knee cause she fell down from swing when
she played in the playground but she met some friends one after
one, she told them not only one version interesting story but also
many kinds of different fantastic adventures. (We knew that were
all her imaginations, kids love them.)


Activity:
1. Preview the cover page, teach the animal's name/sound
Do/copy the actions.....

2. Practice the Q&A :
Q: "What do you see in the picture?
A: "I see a/an _____(animal's name or....)
If the kids speak English well, you can ask single S to come
in front of book and point out what he saw then all Ss ask
the Q, the single S answers and do the action.
(or make the sound). If they were not, you can make Q then
Ss make A.
3. Don't forget to create a gesture for Claire of the word "Well~~~~" When I said that, all kids knew that another funny animal would be shown up and they liked to copy my prounciation of it.
甘巴爹....米那桑, Enjoy the story...oh...no, the adventures.

P.S. Jill Murphy's great books

Pigeon series

這可是一隻精力旺盛,宇宙超聰明的鴿子,常常跟我們鬥志又鬥力,一會兒哭哭鬧鬧,一會兒還會義正辭嚴的講道理...為的就是"達到目的,不擇手段",有小孩的媽一定會覺得這隻鴿子簡直就是小孩的翻版耶,說起故事來一定會更有fu,因為那都是媽媽跟孩子間的共同經驗呢~ Part 1. Don't let the piegon stay up late

part 2. When the piegon finds a hot dog
(by Mo Willems)

會選擇這兩本書做兩次分享,因為part1,小鴿子最後終於疲憊不堪

睡著時做的夢就是"享用hot dog大餐",所以你知道What is the

Pigeon favorite food? The answer is "Hot dog".

我是一人分飾不同的角色來演出這系列繪本,所以聲音的定調很重

要,確定了不同的角色聲音後,即可有不錯的發揮囉!
故事結束後,我會教小朋友畫鴿子(網路有教學影片),再請小朋友寫

下一句鴿子不可以做的事(其實是媽媽不讓他做的事),再逐一分享~


The odd egg


在繪本故事中總有許多關於鴨子的故事,不知道為什麼外國人那麼喜歡以鴨子來當主角呢?如唐老鴨最具代表,我也介紹過精彩鴨,例如:

Duck on a bike (David Sharon) ~ 就是No, David系列作者

Duck for president (Betsy Lewin) 就是click, clack...系列繪者

Famer duck (農夫鴨)


上次介紹過的Emily Gravett 也出了一本有趣的The odd egg,

每一隻鳥媽媽都生了蛋,只有鴨子沒有??為什麼??

有一天鴨子撿到了一顆蛋,很大,但是鴨子覺得那可是世界上

最美麗的蛋(每隻媽媽..喔,不不不,每個媽媽也都覺得自己的小

孩最可愛,不是嗎?)


經過千辛萬苦的努力,終於孵出了令人意想不到的動物呢??



The odd egg (by Emily Gravett)


1. Story telling (take a ball as the egg)

Ask Ss to help hatching the egg.

2. draw an egg with imagination (I will show you the picture.)



Kids love to share their own egg.





Blue Chameleon


這是最近介紹過給孩子的書, Emily Gravett多才多藝,創意十足,書中

並無太多文字,但是寂寞的變色龍為了找到好朋友,對每一次碰到的

"新朋友"都想盡辦法變得跟對方一樣!!


小朋友問:為什麼變色龍那麼笨?那明明是襪子呀?還跟它打招呼!!

透過各種顏色,形狀,"物品或生物",在最後終於皇天不負苦心"龍",

讓它找到了跟它可以match的好朋友....那是誰呢?猜一猜?


這繪本最令我讚賞的是那特殊處理的一頁...."white page", Wow!!

多麼別出心裁的設計....你一定不能錯過~其他作品也是赫赫有名,

有機會要收藏呀....


Emily Gravett 網站也很特別喔! 當然網路上也有很多人介紹她囉~

Handa's surprise


這是我一本我強力推薦的繪本,畫面鮮明,故是節奏穩定,小朋友一下子就融入非洲大草原中跟著monkey, giraffe, elephant... 動物一起偷偷的叼走小女孩Handa 辛苦準備要去看好朋友Akeyo 的水果籃中的各種水果....小女孩都沒有注意到耶?小朋友會問這是為什麼呢??原來Handa一直在想"Akeyo會喜歡那一種水果呢?"

2. Review animal and fruit names


3. Game: Matching game (make a big bingo board and stuck on pictures)

Farmer duck

Farmer duck ~ 一聽就知道是隻苦命的鴨子, Farmer? How come? Where is the real farmer? 小朋友一直替 famer duck打抱不平,說農夫只知道吃東西都不工作... 這隻農夫鴨怎麼聽起來好像家裡的"某個人"呢?大家都異口同聲的說那不就是"媽咪"嗎?? 這些小孩還知道家裡超辛苦的媽咪就是那可憐的小鴨鴨,那懶惰的農夫就是說家裡的 "誰"呀????哈哈哈~

mouse count


這是一本給小朋友數數字的繪本,除了讓小朋友
