Literacy Snack Idea Fall Leaves

September 27, 2017

Literacy Snack Idea Fall Leaves
this article (and most) on primary playground, does contain affiliate links that we do earn a commission off of.  clicking these links does not cost you any extra but helps our website to keep great articles and freebies like this coming your way.

This week for our literacy snack idea, we’re celebrating the official arrival of fall! We will be reading, There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed  Some Leaves! Here in Phoenix, we don’t get to experience the beautiful changing of the leaves so we’re going to live vicariously through our books about fall.

This is a favorite book of the kids. They can’t get enough of the silly old lady. The old lady is back swallowing fall-themed items. What can you make from leaves, clothes, a pumpkin, and rope? That’s right, a scarecrow, and that’s what we’ll be making for our snack this week.

These resources work well with this article.

Literacy Snack Idea Fall Leavesassemble

Using the whipped cream cheese, have the students spread it to cover the top of the english muffin. Using the cream cheese a little bit like a glue. Take the 5 wheat thins and arrange them on the top portion as his hat. Next, put the eyes on the scarecrow, his nose and break the pretzel into a shape of  the mouth they want. Last add the carrot sticks as his straw coming out from under his hat.
