Opposites

There were quite a few new elements to my first storytime back, even though I have already done a storytime on "opposites", that I will share all the books and activities for this one.

Books:
Marta! Big & Small - Jen Arena
A Hop is Up - Kristy Dempsey
You Are (Not) Small - Anna Kang
The Opposite Zoo - Il Sung Na
Big Bear, Small Mouse - Karma Wilson


Repeat Activities (from previous Opposites Storytime):
1. Bread and Butter - Jbrary
2. Open, Shut Them - Hap Palmer (recorded song)
3. Stops Says the Red Light - Jbrary


New Activities:
1. The Tortoise and the Hare [with sign language]
The tortoise went slow.
The hare went fast.
The tortoise kept going.
The hare took a nap.
Although the tortoise went slow, 
And the hare went fast,
The tortoise came first,
And the hare came last.

*I decided to only use the signs for "fast" and "slow" at our storytimes.
