Noah's Barnyard Scramble
Materials Checklist
- Index card for each child
- Felt Pen
- Animal Stickers (Optional) (Oriental Trading)
Preparation
Divide verse into phrases of two or three words each.
Letter each phrase on a separate index card. Make three
identical sets of verse cards. Next, draw a sheep on each
card in first set. Draw a pig on each card in second set.
Draw a cow on each card in third set. (Optional: Use animal
stickers instead of drawing on cards.) Shuffle all cards
together.
Procedure
Give one card to each child. Allow time for children to
look at their cards. At the teacher's signal the children
wander around the room making the animal noises indicated on
their cards. By listening to animal noises, the children
find and gather with like animals. Once complete groups have
gathered, members hold cards up to so verse is in the
correct order. Groups make their animal sounds to signal
they are finished. If time allows, collect cards and
redistribute to repeat game.
