Tacky the penguin

I love the Tacky the Penguin books. Here are a couple of ideas that we did with Tacky today! We used hula hoops to make a Venn Diagram and used words that they came up with to describe Tacky and his companions. The other is an art idea- In groups of 3 or 4 the children tore black and orange paper to make the penguin black and white- we left the paper white (did not tear up white paper) Then the orange for his feet and beak. Next they tore up colored paper to make a "Hawaiian" style shirt…

For our craft we played dress up with Tacky the Penguin, mixing and matching his shirts and bowties.

I love Tacky the Penguin!! His books are a favorite at our house. Do you remember our Tacky the Penguin Craft from last year? I have had a lot of people contact me wanting a pattern recently

Grab this fun Tacky the Penguin craft to go with your winter read alouds. Students will love listening to the story and then creating their own touristy penguin. They make great bulletin board displays for preschool, kindergarten, first and beyond.
