The Ugly Duckling | Letter Dd

As we move on with our letter Dd and ducks, I just had to read The Ugly Duckling to the kids. I do not think any of the kids have heard this story before. They were very engrossed in the story.

After reading the book we worked on a duck craft.

We made this craft last year too. I found this at Pocketful of Posies.

Items Used:

construction paper

feathers

glue

googly eyes

marker

As we were putting our ducks together we sang a song to make this even more fun.

5 Little Ducks

Five little ducks went to play,

Wibble Wobble, Wibble Wobble to and fro.

But the one little duck with a feather on his back,

He led the others with a quack, quack, quack

Quack, quack, quack

He led the others with a quack, quack, quack.

This craft will go into their ABC Binders.

One Duck Stuck | Letter Dd

We are on our letter Dd this week and are focusing on Ducks and Dogs.

We read the book One Duck Stuck by Phyllis Root which is another favorite.

This is a rhyming and counting book about a duck who gets stuck in the muck and ask for help to get him out. Several of his swamp buddies come to help, until finally he is free.

I cut out some animals and shapes to create and replicate the story in the book! 

Here's our craft that they loved so much. 

I didn't use every animal in the story, but it sure caused a lot of giggles!

Thanks so much for stopping by,
