Carnival of the Animals

I am preparing for my spring semester lessons and have compiled my Carnival of the Animals resources.

Because all the classroom teachers are going to be covering the SOL requirements, I have correlated this unit with habitats and food chains, two standards in Virginia for 2nd grade

.


Here is my powerpoint presentation for selected pieces from the Carnival of the Animals.

The last slide of my presentation asks the students to create their own animals piece, including the animal, its habitat and the instrument that represents the animal. I am planning to display these in the hallway once they are finished.


I really like this set of videos. The entire work is available and includes the narration. You can also see each instruments being played.


I've been experimenting with glogster and I created a glog for March of the Royal Lion and Aquarium. I also love this video as a listening map for Aquarium. 



For 1st grade, I am also using Aquarium. We will read "Rainbow Fish", listen to Aquarium and watch the listening map and then create a torn paper fish for our own aquarium (blue paper) in the classroom.



  
Here is a packet of worksheets and coloring sheets that correspond.

    1. If you give me your email, I will send you the pdf directly. My class made a book and in 2nd grade we covered 6 of the pieces. I will send you the cover that they colored, also.

  47. I would like to use your listening map for "Aquarium". Our district uses GaggleTube (filtered YouTube), but I can't seem to find it. Could you send it to me in an mp3 file?

    1. I can try to email you the file, but I'm afraid it will be too large. I get around youtube in school by downloading the videos at home and taking them to school. I use download helper. It is an add on in Firefox.

      Hope this helps.
