We rowed this book at the end of fall and enjoyed it so much!
Monday we read the story, then we talked about China and he colored in a map.
We also made a flag of China. I gave a piece of white cardstock. Then I had him tear pieces of red tissue paper. I watered down some glue and had him use a paint brush to apply the glue to the paper.
I gave him some gold foil stickers. I had an extra star left over from VBS, so I spray painted it gold for him!
We also talked about the culture of China and I had him color this picture:

We also cut 2 ducks out of a brown paper bag. I sprayed one with cooking oil and left the other one plain. I had him put water in an eye dropper and see what happens. Then we discussed that ducks can't get wet because they have oil on their feathers.
All in all a fairly good row!
Blessings!
