JULY THEME
Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed
It's SUMMER TIME! Frolic, fun and play are in order. The book of the month is
5 Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed. This book captures the essence of having fun, frolicking and playing! It is also a great way to teach the verb “jump” along many other verbs in the book. And of course, these words require movement which is a great tool for language development, as we have learned and discussed.
This month we are focusing on developing communication skills via movement. The language concepts for our theme are:
VERBS: fell, jump, bump, call,
PEOPLE: mama, doctor, brother, sister
VOCABULARY: phone, bed
NUMBERS/COUNTING: 1-5
