Go Wild Graphics



Go Wild Graphics / Book List
Bookmarks (Front & Back) I bring one of these bookmarks for each student at your school: Posters I send you three of these 18" x 24" posters to post around the school to publicize your program. (Let me know if you would like more than three.) They really help build excitement about the "big day." The white bar is an area for you to write the date, time, and/or location of your programs, or any other information you'd like to pass on. Printable Graphic This is similar to the poster, but it doesn't have the white bar. If you're printing reading certificates or other forms and you can use this as a starting point, you're welcome to use it. Just copy and paste it into whichever program you're using. Press Release "Safari Curt and his wacky friends will be taking your kids on a wild imaginary tour of their backyards, neighborhoods, and community parks. Through magic, puppetry and storytelling, this madcap group of furry and feathered friends will teach your young readers about using the Scientific Process to answer questions about their own environment. The 'Go Wild!' science safari begins with an explanation of the scientific process and the process of metamorphosis illustrated by everyone’s favorite superhero, Super-Frog. Next, Beauregard the Vulture re-enacts the story from Aesop’s 'The Crow and the Pitcher,' as he teaches about hypotheses and experiments. The subtle science teaching continues with Petey the Opossum, an adorable marsupial, Leanne the Bunny, and finally the rodent who is just so darn popular we had to put him in all of our shows – Roosevelt Rat. Don't miss the science program that is so good that the National Science Center in Augusta, Georgia asked to endorse it! For more information, visit www.slightlyillusional.com, or come to your location at time on your date to see Safari Curt, Roosevelt, Petey, Leanne and Beauregard perform their 'Go Wild!' assembly."

Books Featured in the “Go Wild” Science/Reading Program Note: I remind students during the program that they can check out a book similar to the ones listed. Topics that I discuss in this program include science concepts (the scientific process, experiments, hypothesis, metamorphosis, camouflage, predators, omnivorous, nocturnal, marsupials, carbon, friction, heat, and pressure), animals (tadpoles, frogs, chameleons, anoles, butterflies, birds, and possums), other countries (Madagascar), recycling and magic tricks.
