Chart Time
Our chart this week looks a little different because I am trying to, along with the Letter of the week, a shape and a number. If it gets to be too much information then I am going to back off but this week he seemed to handle all 3 just fine :) This weeks shape was square and number 3.
Computer Time Intro Letter Ii
Another new thing I decided to try this week is to start the week by using our computer to introduce the letter we are working on for the week. We use ABCmouse.com and love it. I was going through his lessons that he has completed on there, and came across something I didn't know. Parents can go into the lesson plan for the week and actually set up a plan focusing on whatever they want. So I found letter i and we did all the letter i activities that were available on the site. I was so impressed and decided that it would be a great way to start an introduction of a new letter each week! I am pretty sure I can do this with numbers and shapes as well!
Here we are going over our iguana discussion page in our tot book and tracing letter Ii using our Dry Erase Center.
Our Chart had a House Scavenger Hunt on it for the number 3 to find 3 doors- which our schoolhouse has exactly that! Then he is tracing his number 3 worksheet which also has 3 squares on it to trace and reading our on Iguana's on Ice Alphatales book.
We colored some shapes, (ok I colored most of them because Cowboy is NOT much for coloring) then I cut them out and he pasted them onto green construction paper with a picture of an iguana.
Our vocabulary cards this week were with the the theme igloo..... soooo he really learned some new words because in Louisiana, we don't see much snow nor do we have a need for half of the cards that were in this stack! Such as snow boots, snow mobile, ice skates etc. But we learned them anyway :)
Playing with Tinker Toys.....
Size sequence cards- Number the igloos smallest to largest 1-3, and shadow matching cap. and lower case letter Ii.
Glitter the iguana!
Trace and color the squares red worksheet- then cut and paste them on the presents........
Used some gems to follow the number 3 maze to the number 3 in a square.......
Trace the letter Ii using play dough in our dry erase center.......
Free Play!!!! Made silly faces with play dough, ABC Magnets, wiggly eyes, and cut up straws.......
Letter I craft MARBLE PAINT!!! Just got a top to a box put in the letter I we usually cut out, squirted some paint, got some marbles and just rolled them back and fourth and side to side.
Put it in the sun for a little while then cut it and he glued on the iguana's :) I love how pretty it came out!
Reading in the Beginning in our Children's Bible.
Using Gems to cover letter Ii's to get to the iguanas food!
Another I craft. Made an Iguana with the the letter I. Using construction paper, glue, scissors, wiggly eyes, and a tiny piece of pipe cleaner for the tongue :) He wanted to play with his new iguana friend and was not happy that he had to dry first.
