Early Childhood Activities

Swimmy by Leo Lionni, 
Swimmy, a fish, teaches a tiny school of fish how to use teamwork.  As a group they appear to be a large fish, and they scare a big fish away.  This saves the little fish from being eaten.  

Activity:  Discuss what it means to be part of a family, a group, or a class.  How can we help each other?

Read the book.  Discuss the importance of working together and being part of a team.

Small group - Provide a variety of mediums: markers, colored pencils, crayons, pastels, and large drawing paper.  Invite the children to draw many fish in an underwater scene.
