  4. Then read Going on a Bear Hunt, and have the children make the elements of the bear hunt throughout the week and put them on the poster paper. Elements such as bears, grass, a hill, cave, river, etc. They can make up their own things that they might see such as birds, trees, frogs in the water, etc. 
Assessment: 
  • After creating the Bear Hunt project ask the children how making this journey would be different if they were walking the bear hunt alone? Point out how all the feet were going in the same direction, together as a bear hunt community. Ask the children to retell the art process and explain how it would be different if they were not completing it as a group. 
Dramatic play extension: Set up a dramatic play area with flashlights, safari hats, walking sticks, etc.
