BOOK:
SOUL FOOD SUNDAY
Sunday isn't Sunday without a big family gathering complete with a soul food feast at Granny's. Our young protagonist is now old enough to help Granny prepare the special meal,
and even adds his own special contribution.
RHYME: FIVE LITTLE HOT DOGS
File little hot dogs frying in a pan (Wiggle fingers)
The grease got hot (Rub fingers on other hand)
And one went BAM! (Clap!)
How many are left?
Count: 1—2—3—4!
Count down until no hot dogs are left.
SOUL FOOD SUNDAY WORD OF THE WEEK

2. Sound out the word letter–by-letter.
3. Think of other words that rhyme with soul. These can be real words
or made-up ones that are silly and non-sensical!

LITERACY TIP
Make time for storytelling as part of your day and lessons plans! Not only does the telling of oral stories engage students, having children tell their own stories (both real and made up) supports language development, reading comprehension and narrative writing. It's also a great way to practice vocabulary. Use the story and craft in this storytime to have children share
stories of their own families' mealtimes and traditions.
