Have you enjoyed the free printable finger plays I have offered you recently? I love making them and have created one for you today especially for spring or Easter - it's called Rabbit!
- a short engaging text that students can participate actively in
- a literacy experience - students can point or follow along with the text and demonstrate pre-reading skills
- a language experience - students are exposed to topic vocabulary and rhyme
- an integration of listening, language and literacy
- a re-focus opportunity and a joint experience that will help build classroom community
- fine motor and movement
- a fun transition between longer lessons
This finger play is mostly focussed on rabbit's face and has simple actions that complement each part. It concludes with students rolling their hands in a ball and placing them snuggly in their lap - perfect for behavior management.
Project it onto your classroom electronic board to use it as a literacy or reading activity. As you collect more of our finger plays you can add them together in a folder and let your students read them in the classroom library.
A blackline version is included for you too. Have students color it and take it home to share with their families. This makes a great literacy link between home and school.
