Description

Gently wave the pom-poms or grass over the knees of your child (get them to smell if using real grass).

We’re going on a bear hunt. Uh-uh! Grass! We’re going to catch a big one. Long wavy grass. What a beautiful day! We can’t go over it. We’re not scared. We can’t go under it. Oh no! We’ve got to go through it! Leonard, Robert (29 March 2020). "The Coronavirus Is Upending Life in Rural America, Too". The New York Times .

Then there's the artwork. The artwork is impressionistic, evocative of my youth, particularly the memories I have of using the excrement in my diapers to paint on my bedroom walls. Much like the drawings in this book, I couldn't distinguish between the characters in my own imagery either. Only two things could be said of it with absolution. It stunk, and you can't bleach the images away once they've been burned into your memory. When you get to the end where it says “one shiny wet nose” touch your nose without saying “nose” and wait ‘til the group says “nose”. Do the same for the ears and eyes.

Encourage your child to join in with the chorus ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’ and any parts of the text they remember. Make up actions together for the different parts of the story; eg swishing through long grass, squelching through mud and tiptoeing into the bear’s cave. Watch the story Tap out the rhythm on your child’s leg or arm. If anyone else is joining in they can tap out the rhythm on a drum or any of the other suggested resources!

Michael Rosen Helen Oxenbury ❖ 7th May 1946 ❖ 2nd June 1938 ❖ A British children’s author ❖ A English illustrator and writer ❖ Has written 140 books ❖ MA & Ph.D in children’s of children’s picture books ❖ Has twice won the British literature and writing librarians’ award & been runner up for 4 times Age 0-5 This beautiful picture book celebrated its 30 th anniversary in 2019. It’s based on a well known traditional rhyme regularlyperformed by Michael Rosen at live events which he then developed for the picturebook. Helen Oxenbury’s beautiful illustrations really add to the rhyme, transforming it into a family adventure. The rhythm and repetition make it great fun to tell and retell (or even sing!) with and without the book. We’re going on a bear hunt. Uh-uh! A cave! We’re going to catch a big one. A narrow gloomy cave. What a beautiful day! We’re not scared. We can’t go over it. We can’t go under it. Oh no! We’ve got to go through it!

We’re going on a bear hunt. Uh-uh! A snowstorm! We’re going to catch a big one. A swirling whirling snowstorm. What a beautiful day! We’re not scared. We can’t go over it. We can’t go under it. Oh no! We’ve got to go through it!

Feel the snow/ice on hands/feet. Move over materials where appropriate, using different parts of the body. Whenever the text says “We can’t go over it”, etc. ask instead, “Can we go over it?” and shake your head while everyone says “no!”, etc. This involves the group and pulls them into the drama.

The book has been adapted as a stage play by director Sally Cookson with musical score by Benji Bower and design by Katie Sykes. The play has run in the West End and in provincial theatres. The ending of the performance has been changed so that there is a reconciliation between the family and the bear. [9] [10] Time Out magazine, who awarded four stars out of five, whilst describing the performers as "wonderfully entertaining" also said "those in the later primary years might find it a little boring – not an awful lot happens, after all." [11] Television adaptation [ edit ] Bear Hunt, beautifully illustrated by Helen Oxenbury, is the British children's book author Rosen's most popular book, this Vietnamese edition one of the (more than, now?) fifteen dual language ones. We're Going on a Bear Hunt is a British 1989 children's picture book written by Michael Rosen and illustrated by Helen Oxenbury. It has won numerous awards and was the subject of a Guinness World Record for "Largest Reading Lesson" with a book-reading attended by 1,500 children, and an additional 30,000 listeners online, in 2014. Michael Rosen skilfully repeats some phrases and the use of onomatopoeia as the family experience each surrounding (‘splash splosh’, ‘squelch squerch’). This not only makes it appealing for young listeners, but interactive too, as it encourages them to join in.Each of the obstacles, apart from the river, is based on a real life location in England and Wales that Oxenbury knew. [1] We’re going on a bear hunt written by Michael Rosen is one of my most cherished childhood books. How could I forget it… I read this book to my Reception class the day before we went on a school trip to the 'Build a Bear Factory'. It linked in with work they had done that week about bears and was a perfect introduction to the idea of 'going on a journey'. The school trip was to be their first as a class and reading this book to them was a good starter activity before we discussed the next day's school trip and what the children would be doing. There are plenty of children's books about self destructive impulses. In The Cat in the Hat, the children are seduced into destroying their entire house, which they know full well will result in mother's unbridled scorn. Franklin the Turtle is always doing stupid shit and then whining about it when he gets caught. I don't have a big problem with those books. They make sense to me because they follow three core principles: it's ok to depict kids doing dumb shit, because their mistakes are generally inadvertent. The mistakes characters make should teach children about human folly and the lessons we can glean from the err of our ways. Finally, rarely, if ever, are the parents depicted as condoning the child's self-destruction.
