The parent<br />

connection<br />

is valued<br />

and respected by all our educational consultants at<br />

Harlin Jacque. We also write, edit and design our<br />

books with the family in mind.<br />

It is very important that you, as a parent, participate<br />

with interest in your children’s education throughout<br />

their school years. With that in mind, activities for<br />

Anthony Ant and Grady Grasshopper were prepared<br />

for a future of enrichment and involvement between<br />

you and your children.<br />

This well-loved fable is a favorite of children of all ages.<br />

Children love to hear and reread it over and over again.<br />

When the end of the story is read or heard and the<br />

activities begin, children’s imaginations run rampant,<br />

thoughts begin to form, and new ideas develop.<br />

I know these activities will allow you and your children<br />

to spend quality time together. In addition to teaching<br />

your children to appreciate others, these exercises will<br />

help foster a lifelong appreciation of writing, reading,<br />

and learning.<br />

It is very important that all attempts at reading and<br />

writing are valued. Allow children to make mistakes<br />

and remember the importance of correcting errors<br />

with patience and love.<br />

Don’t forget to be inventive and creative. You know your<br />

child better than anyone else. Choose the activities that<br />

best suit your child’s age, needs, and interests. Begin<br />

a library of great children’s books. Have your children<br />

choose their favorite book of the month. Establish<br />

weekly library trips. Don’t forget the library card.<br />

Remember a literacy-rich home environment will provide<br />

your children with literacy-rich futures.<br />

“ANTHONY ANT’S SONG”<br />

From Anthony Ant and<br />

Grady Grasshopper<br />

by <strong>Lindamichellebaron</strong><br />

You sang and you sang in the summer sun<br />

Instead of saving food you had your fun.<br />

You sang and you sang and I know it’s true.<br />

You’re dancing from the cold now, aren’t you?<br />

You sang and you sang in the summer sun<br />

Instead of saving food you had your fun.<br />

You sang and you sang, but I won’t repeat.<br />

I think you learned your lesson.<br />

So now, let’s eat!<br />
