If You Want to Knit Some Mittens — Storytime Props

Okay, y’all might already know that I’m not the world’s best social media person—ha! But that doesn’t stop me from appreciating those who ARE able to both come up with fun ideas AND share them in wonderful ways. Check out these awesome images shared by Hanna from My Literacy Space. They show the cutest manipulatives and props you could use in a storytime featuring If You Want to Knit Some Mittens. (And check out more fun ideas from Hanna, who shares boatloads of awesome books, ideas, and strategies for teaching reading. She’s @myliteracyspace on Instagram, and her website is here. I totally want that little fleece sheepsuit to demonstrate “shearing” a sheep. <3

Check these out.

Aren’t those adorable?! Thank you, Hanna, for sharing If You Want to Knit Some Mittens and for giving me permission to post your fabulous images!
