Movable Alphabet with Pet Shop

Today to begin the lesson I asked Devon to get 10 of her Little Pet Shop and bring them to the den. I only wanted to get the beginning sounds, but she really wanted the whole word. I helped her with some, but rabbit for example I left alone.

Word Families

We are using Hooked on Phonics and Starfall. I think I will use the movable alphabet tomorrow for at word family lesson. She needs to hear and touch the letters to make them make sense.

Counting

Feeding the dogs has turned into a counting lesson. Three Scoops, and we both count 1, 2, 3. Sometimes, Caroline turns to me and says, "one more puppy soup."

Herminoe is pictured waiting for her food, while Harry has the good enough sense to wait outside the pantry until Caroline is finished her work.

Alphabet Recognition

Alphabet Recognition

Upper Case-
not idenified-I

Lower Case-
not idenified- w, g (sound...but not the name)

Now that we are have the sounds for all the ABC's and missing very little alphabet recognition....we are moving on to recalling.

Word Find

Devon was given several words written on cardstock and her new camera. She had to find the word and take a picutre of it with its label: hat, man, and mat are shown.

Buckets of Fun

Recently, I have visited the grocery stores and acquired icing buckets for various usages. They come to me covered in caked on icing, so I fill them with warm water and soap and Caroline has a great time with cups and scrubbing tools. She thinks it is fun and I don't have to scrub the buckets so hard.

Telling Time

I bought this clock for 97 cents and pulled it out of the closet today to show clockwise motion and to look at the size of the different hands. A Becka K Math introduces the clock with the numbers, so we have done number 1 and 2 and seen 1 o'clock and 2 o'clock displayed. This was a great 5 minute activity and I now have the clock in the learning space.
