Standing Fingerplay: Soy Una Cafetera
3-D story: Pete es Una Pizza (Pete's a Pizza)/William Steig *prop story
4th story: La Mujer con la Bolsa de Cocodrilo (The Lady with the Alligator Purse)/Nadine Bernard Westcott *prop story
Instrument song: Soy Una Pizza/Charlotte Diamond (Soy Una Pizza) *with maracas
*Skipped hand stamp, bubbles, and hand stamp song in order to do the paper plate pizza craft.
Bilingual Story Time Plan:
Stamp Hands and bubbles
Hand stamp song: Pepperoni Pizza/Bev Bos, Tom Hunter, and Michael Leeman (Hand in Hand)
The Craft: Paper Plate Pizzas
You'll need:
Paper plates
Glue stick
Red markers or red crayons to color in sauce
Shredded yellow paper or yellow yarn for cheese
Circles cut from red construction paper for pepperoni
Small pieces of green construction paper for bell pepper
And if you have time for extra toppings:
-Small black paper circles for olives (use a hole puncher to make rings)
-Crumpled pieces of brown paper bags for sausage
-Light brown construction paper to cut mushrooms using die-cuts (as a county employee, I was able -to use the local county office of education's media center for this part)
I put the "toppings" in plastic sandwich baggies, so the kids couldn't argue about "who had more pepperoni," etc. and placed the bags on top of individual paper plates set on tables the day of the craft.
Instructions for the kids:
-Color the middle of their paper plate with red crayon or red marker
-Use the glue stick to glue down the cheese (it's important to glue the cheese first because then the other toppings get covered up)
-Proceed to glue on other toppings
Most importantly, have fun! When I did this with the kids, a little boy kept saying, "¡Una llanta! (A tire!)" when he saw the "olives." :-)
