We finally got The mixed up Chameleon from the library, we read it a couple of times and Jessica loves it so we started working on some activities, I made these cards that you can print, cut and laminate so whenever I retell the story and say: I wish I could be big and white like a... and let the child hold these cards and think which animal is big and white, so her answer will be the polar bear then I go on with the story, I wish I could be handsome like a... flamigo (being their answer), and so on Also, another activity is to print them and cut them separating the word with the picture, that way you can read the word to them and they match it with the correct picture, this will help them learn the name of each animal in this book and another activity is to print them out twice or three times and do a little pattering math with them like this elephant, elephant, flamingo, elephant, elephant... what goes next? so you get the idea... :) Enjoy!
