The Very Lonely Firefly

Product Information

The firefly population is decreasing, so we want to make sure we release them in the same condition we caught them in.

After THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR had been published I wanted to create a VERY quartet. With this book I have achieved that goal. Create the colored paper to use for the wings. (We wanted our wings to resemble the firefly’s wings in the book so we decided to paint our wing paper, but you could also just use construction paper wings to simplify the activity.) Vocabulary - lots of different light sources are used and it gives children the change to think of each light source.We decided to make our own fireflies (or lightning bugs as I used to call them) using a cardboard tube and some paper. They turned out super cute! (You could even make a smaller version using an empty toilet paper roll.) Art paper (This is our favorite art paper. It’s inexpensive and holds different types of paints really well.) urn:lcp:verylonelyfirefl1999carl:epub:4e330c55-79d5-46f9-b1db-4260872347c9 Extramarc University of Alberta Libraries Foldoutcount 0 Identifier verylonelyfirefl1999carl Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t2n59j437 Isbn 0399234276
