I have a NEW literacy snack idea for you today. We are reading The Very Greedy Bee. In the book, the bee is very greedy and will not share his nectar with anyone! He finds the juiciest flowers, ends up eating too much, and gets stuck. He makes some friends that help him on his journey back home, and In the end, he shares all of his best honey with his new friends.This is a great story that gives the opportunity to describe the character throughout the text. It helps the kids learn that they shouldn’t be greedy, to share and that sometimes you may need to ask for help from others.Come and see our snack idea and grab the printable togo along with the book here: primaryplayground.net/literacy-snack-bee-read-aloud/ ...
