Brown Bear Brown Bear Activities for Preschoolers

Bill Martin Jr.’s Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See? is a classic picture book that has remained a relevant favorite among preschoolers over time.  It was an essential text in my childhood library, classroom, and now in my own children’s library at home.  Picture books with predictable text such as Brown Bear, Brown Bear are excellent ways to introduce young children to reading.  It is also one of my favorite books to engage young readers in choral reading.  This approach to reading is an effective way to increase fluency while also building confidence.

The rhythmically repetitious text and bold illustrations captivate even the youngest readers. Yet, its simplicity allows for so many ways to introduce early math and literacy skills such as color identification, sorting, color words, sequencing and oral retell just to name a few.
