We make our own class shape book version of Brown Bear Brown Bear!

 



 

We sing and act out the Gummy Bear Song by Dr. Jean!



 

We make fun colors to eat using food coloring, vanilla wafers, and
craft sticks! YUM! I do this as a follow up activity to White Rabbit's Color Book.

We go on a bear hunt! YIKES....

Brown Bear, Brown Bear, Who Do You See?

We reenact the story of Brown Bear using character necklaces.

We match color splats to color words!

We sort gummy bears by colors!

We estimate gummy bears!

We make Brown Bears using different shapes!
