Felt boards and felt pieces are a great early literacy tool to get children excited and engaged in storytelling or rather, the re-telling of a familiar story, poem, or song.  Currently on our felt board, I have out the felt pieces for the 5 Little Monkey's.  Today we observed Weston quietly re-telling the 5 Little Monkey's poem to himself.  He was doing so well, I thought I'd give him a little music to make his story come alive and I pulled up our favorite 5 Little Monkey's video on youtube for him to follow along with.  Great job kiddo :)
