On Tuesday, I spent the day finalizing my craft idea for my
story time that will happen in August. Originally, I had this craft that is made out
of several toilet paper tubes, but the site I found did not give specific directions,
and neither my supervisor nor I could figure out how to do it. So, I continued
searching for a craft that was somewhat like it and I found this one. What I
really liked about this particular craft is that children can blow through the
back of it, causing the streamers to go up, which would look like the dragon is
blowing fire. I liked this because it will go with my story time’s theme of
imagination.
On Thursday, I focused on my toddler tub. The subject of
this particular toddler tub is Farm Animals #1. This is much simpler than
coming up with your very own story time because there are already books and
activities in the tub. The only things I need to do are come up with a few
songs and write up the directions for the other library branches. However, when
my supervisor looked in the tub, she didn’t like some of the activities because
they were poorly made.
On Friday, I mostly focused on trying to complete the Farm
Animals #1 toddler tub. I had to find pictures to go along with the Old
MacDonald song. There were cut out pictures taped to popsicle sticks already in
the tub, but they were not very nice looking. After I picked out some pictures
for that, I found a cute little rhyme about colors and chicks that used the
felt board. So the next thing I had to do was find some felt and cut out some
chick figures. I was only able to find several of the colors needed, though. Next,
I was able to spend some time on the desk and I helped my supervisor sterilize
some of the toys and exchange them out for new ones.
