How to Make and Play
Song Poster
To construct the song poster print out onto white paper or cardstock and laminated for durability. Select printing option “fit to page”.
Song Pieces
To construct the song pieces print out the colour images onto white cardstock. Cut out around the outline of each piece and laminate for durability. To create magnetic song pieces for use on a magnet board attach a piece of adhesive magnetic tape to the back of the laminated song piece. To create song pieces for use on a felt board attach an adhesive velcro hook dot to the back of the laminated song piece. Once the song pieces have been constructed they can be used to retell the number rhyme Five Little Ladybugs on a magnetic or felt board at group time.
Stick Puppets
To construct the stick puppets in color, print out the color puppet templates onto white cardstock. Cut out each puppet template around the dotted outline and laminate for durability. Stick the puppet template to a popsicle or paddle pop stick using tape or glue. Another suggested use for this resource is for students to color in the black and white puppet template, cut out along the dotted outline and stick to a popsicle/ paddle pop stick using glue or sticky tape.
Once the puppets have been constructed, students can use the stick puppets to retell the number rhyme Five Little Ladybugs.
