ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Awnie's House Callie Reads DUCK, DUCK, DINOSAUR SNOWY SURPRISE Part 1 of 3
Hello, friends! Today, we’re going to read a fun story called “Duck, Duck, Dinosaur: Snowy’s Surprise.” It’s written by Callie George and has beautiful pictures by Oren Roy. Let’s meet the characters! We have Feather, Flap, and their brother Spike. They are all ready for a snowy adventure!
It’s wintertime, and winter is full of surprises. Do you know what the surprise is today? It’s snow! Have you ever seen snow? It’s white and fluffy, and it covers everything like a big, soft blanket.
When Feather steps outside, Feather says, “Snow is cold.” Flap agrees and says, “Cold.” But guess what? Spike doesn’t feel cold at all. Spike is super excited and wants to play in the snow!
Playing in the snow can be so much fun! You can make snowballs, build a snowman, or even make snow angels by lying down and moving your arms and legs. What would you like to do if you were playing in the snow with Feather, Flap, and Spike?
Stay tuned for more snowy adventures with Feather, Flap, and Spike. Who knows what other surprises winter might bring? Let’s find out together!
Snow Observation Walk: If you have snow outside, go on a short walk with an adult and observe the snow. How does it feel when you touch it? Is it soft or hard? What happens when you hold it in your hand for a while? If there’s no snow, you can use cotton balls to pretend. Talk about how snow covers everything like a big, soft blanket, just like in the story.
Build Your Own Snowman: Use playdough or clay to create your own snowman indoors. You can use small objects like buttons, beads, or sticks to decorate it. Think about how you would dress your snowman to keep it warm. What kind of hat or scarf would you give it?
Winter Weather Journal: Start a simple weather journal. Each day, draw a picture of what the weather looks like outside. Is it snowy, sunny, or cloudy? Talk about how the weather changes and how it makes you feel, just like Feather, Flap, and Spike felt different about the snow.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
