Description

In this presentation, students spend some time considering and discussing the story The Very Hungry Caterpillar in a new way. In it, they are introduced to concepts like the main character, the setting, and try and identify the central problem of the story and its solution.

This presentation was created as a part of Teach This’ Very Hungry Caterpillar unit. It is designed to help you bring an exciting range of cross-curricular activities into your classroom to go along with this classic story book. In the unit students will sequence the story, assemble sentences, count their way through fruit, make healthy eating decisions and learn a little bit about how hungry caterpillars turn into beautiful butterflies.
