Rosie's Walk
by Pat Hutchins  

Through wonderful prepositional phrases that match the action in the pictures, we watch Rosie, the hen, as she goes for a walk around the barnyard. Neither she nor the text ever notice the fox that is intent on catching her. Unwittingly, she foils the fox at every turn and in the end he is driven off by a swarm of bees. Rosie returns undisturbed and unperturbed to her roost in the hen house

 Some of the Illnois State Standards that will be addressed:

1.B.Ka    Make predictions based on cover, title, and pictures (when we take a picture walk through the book first).

1.B.Kc    Engage in shared/independent reading of familiar predictable text.

1.C. Kc    Compare/contrast a variety of literary works (when we compare this book to The Little Red Hen).

4.A.Kb    Follow 2-3 step directions accurately (when we do a directed draw of Rosie).

Additional SMS Curriculum Objectives that will be addressed:

To celebrate that God wants us to be members of His family and to thank God for the gift of Baptism (since Thomas will be baptized this Sunday!).
