Lucy’s Dry Teddy: Activities

Shared Reading · Ages 3–4. An adult reads the questions and clues aloud. Children can talk, point, sign or choose an answer. For Jumbled Words, show the matching vocabulary word and build it together; children do not need to read independently.

Vocabulary

Read these five words from the story. Talk about what they mean.

roof: The cover over the top of a shelter.
paper: A thin material used for drawing or covering.
wet: With water on it.
cloth: Material used to make clothes or covers.
dry: With no water on it.

Jumbled Words

Use the clue to make a word from the story. Drag the letters with a mouse or finger, or tap a letter and then a space.

Put the story in order

Drag the pictures into order from first to last with a mouse or finger. Or tap a picture, then tap where it should go. Use arrow keys to move a focused picture.

Tell the story

An adult can help cover a toy box with paper, then reusable waterproof fabric. Add a few drops from a cup over a tray and compare the covers.
