A Giraffe and a Half
A Giraffe and a Half | Shel Silverstein
5 posts | 7 read | 1 to read
Delightfully zany rhymes about a giraffe who accumulates some ridiculous things--like glue on his shoe and a bee on his knee--only to lose them again, one by one. "Infectiously funny . . . a good nonsensical text and illustrations".--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books.

A Giraffe and a Half is a classic F circle story I would definitely use this book for IR – students will be able to pick up on the rhyming and repetition on their own.

http://mosswoodconnections.com/giraffe-half-rhyming-kit/ This link contains a fun activity that enforces rhyming with the use of props.

EL – 22. Give enough wait time for second language learners to respond to questions 7y
AshleyAA I adore your resource! I think students will definitely be engaged, especially because younger children love rhymes (and who doesn‘t love props)! I‘ll keep this in mind for use in my future classroom. 7y
