The letter H..

For the letter H, we made houses. We taped pieces of paper in the form of an H and then added roofs on top. They turned out really good!!

After making our H houses we practiced writing the letter H on the white board. The kids did so well writing the letter and while they practiced writing, we named things that start with the letter H.

The other thing we did for the letter H was filling the letter H with cutout hearts.

We also glued Popsicle sticks on paper. They turned out really well!!

F is for Flower

We started out the morning coloring our letter "F"s and repeating the "f" sound with words: "F is for Frog, F is for farmer, F is for fruit," etc.

Then we focused on "F is for Flowers!"

We glued our noodle flowers onto plates and painted and decorated them.

next we sang our flower song (sung to the tune of Frair Jaques):

How do flowers grow?

Big and tall?

Lots of sun and water,

dirt and air,

Watch them grow!

We first sang the song together and then acted out being little seeds, getting covered with dirt, sprinkled with water (tickles), then pulling off the dirt (blanket) for air and sun. Our little seeds grew so tall!

Our next activities:

We played "Build a Flower" by rolling the die, counting the dots, and finding the flower piece that matched the correct number.

Then flower puzzles,

and flower sizing small, medium, and big.

For story and snack time we read "A Rose in My Garden"--I loved this book as a kid, looking at all the different flowers growing in the garden, and also trying to find the little bugs hiding in the garden. The girls really got into finding everything!
