Rumble In The Jungle
November 03, 2009
Dan Wardell, host of Iowa Public Television Kids Clubhouse treated Central Lyon preschool through fifth grade students to a visit on Wednesday, November 4, 2009. First and second grade students enjoyed listening to him read the story, Rumble In The Jungle by Giles Andreae. The story begins as a small group of ants marches off from their hill early in the morning. A verse then introduces each creature as encountered, until the end of the day when all of the animals are ready to sleep. Each verse gives a little information about the animal described.
The children and teachers had fun pretending to be the animals from the story. It was a very lively storytelling experience for everyone. Each child received a kazoo as a gift from Dan. He had a very important message for all of the students. He encouraged each child to turn off the television, use their imagination, exercise, and read books. Please ask your child to tell you about Dan's visit.
