๐ฐ Little Stars Plus 5: The Shy Bunny
Lesson 5 of Little Stars Plus, a Pre-A1 English course for children aged 4 to 6, is story time. In an original picture story, Pip, Mia, Leo and Sam meet a shy bunny in the garden. Every time the children call the refrain โHello, bunny!โ, a little more gently, the bunny feels braver โ until it peeks out, waves and says โHello! Iโm Bunny!โ. Children learn โbunnyโ and โshyโ with a gesture each, call the refrain on every pink page, echo the story line by line, and finish with a calm circle: the bunny puppet visits each child for a whispered hello, a gentle stroke and, if they like, a hug. Every word is a picture and a voice โ tap it to hear it in British English. With teacher tips, ideas for online lessons, a 30-minute version and a Star Check picture game for home.
