I'm linking up with Paula from Paula's Place to share a picture book that we read last week, First Week at Cow School by Andy Cutbill. This is one of my favourite's for the first week at school and looking at how we each have special skills & talents.
This is Andy's follow up story to "The Cow that Laid an Egg". These stories are super funny!
In The First Week at Cow School Majorie the cow sends her daughter Daisy off to her first day at cow school but Daisy finds it a bit difficult to fit in. The kids love this story as the pictures fill you in that Daisy is actually a chicken.
We had lots of great discussion about how Daisy was different to the other kids in her class & what her special skills and talents are. It's also a great story to talk about classroom routines and days of the week.
I love to make a craft each week to support our Book of the Week. Being first week back & we only had 3 half-days that didn't happen but you might like to check out my Book & Letter Crafts Board to get some ideas for Majorie & Daisy crafts.

Hope you enjoy this story,
I love the sound of this picture book Bec. I hadn't heard of it before. Thanks so much for sharing!
