The “Winter Dance” is a book- inspired, digital learning pack. This beautifully illustrated and written picture book “The Winter Dance” by Marion Dane Bauer, illustrated by Richard Jones, enchants readers with repeated text and soft forest scenes. “Winter is coming, what should I do?” the fox asks. As he asks the different forest creatures, one by one, they tell him what they do in the winter, like make a chrysalis, burrow in the mud, gather and hide acorns. But it’s not until he sees another red fox that he learns what to do. “When a million snowflakes fill the air, twirling, tumbling, spinning, waltzing, you and I join them.” It’s absolutely a joyful celebration of winter with an exceptional use of vivid verbs. Along this beautiful story, our learning set is packed with 155 pages of hands-on activities, story sequencing, book reports, storytelling cards, 3-part cards, fun facts about red foxes, make your own book, anatomy of forest animals, and learning about animal life in winter. The unit contains many fun language activities, writing, phonics, pre-writing activities, games, nature play, a craft (make your own fox mask), coloring and painting pages, posters and more, that will delight and engage your children. It is geared towards children 5 to 10yo.
With the warmth and light of interest-led and child-guided reading fun, this learning pack is a wonderful resource to guide your child learning journey!
