Thursday was a lot of fun. We talked about going on vacation and practiced packing a suitcase. We also read some stories about different kinds of transportation. Then everyone made their own suitcase, with clothes. They loved playing red light/green light while "driving" in their cars. I also found out that they all enjoy doing puzzles.

A little bit late.

We missed Owen and James last Monday, but were glad to see them Thursday. We went over colors again. We learned what our primary colors were (red, yellow, and blue) and learned that when they are put together these colors will make purple, green, and orange. We reviewed M, N, O, and P and even tried writing them in upper case and lower case. We counted some green frogs and had tons of fun playing hop, hop, frog (played like duck, duck, goose) and musical chairs. Here are our activities from both days. Here are our primary colors. Since it's spring, we planted a flower garden with all the colors Sort the puffs Frogs and mixing colors. The LOVED making their colors. We took a zip lock baggy, put some shaving cream in and with a drop of two of our primary colors we learned what it would become!

Today was a lot of fun. We did activities from February Week 1, Days 1&2. The kids' favorite activity was painting their oceans and coloring thier sea animals. James was really loving the paint and spent a lot of time making his ocean look great. We played pretend boats and sang a train song. And of course, we couldn't make it through with out dressing up. Everyone put on a costume and we played "Pilot, Pilot, Airplane". When it was Randi's turn she would say "Airplane, Airplane, Captin!" I thought that was cute. Alex guessed the "mystery item" to glue on the letter P, and he glued his popcorn on perfectly.

Just a note, I sing the Leap Frog Letter Factory song with them when we practice our letters. I don't know if your kids watch this video, but it has really helped my kids learn their letters and sounds. Let me know if you would like to borrow it...See you Thursday!

wk 3

We did week 4 days 3 and 4. The kids loved playing with the teddy bears. I got some pictures from the first day but none from the second. On Thursday we got to dress the bears up in winter clothes and also do some dancing with the teddy bears. It was so fun to see how the kids interact.
