Rosie’s Windy Picture: 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.

picture: A drawing or image.
paper: A thin material we can draw on.
board: A flat, firm piece of material.
corner: A place where two edges meet.
clips: Fasteners that hold things together.

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

With an adult, put a drawing on a smooth board. Compare a loose paper edge with an edge held by large clips. Gently fan the paper.
