We reviewed letters A-O and sang the letter sound song.
Next we talked about boats and ships and looked at pictures of different kinds of pictures.
Our craft was “Sailboats.” First they had to glue on the light house pieces and color the sailboats. Then the children had to use water colors over the sailboats.
We sang “Row, Row, Row Your Boat,” while pretending to row a boat.
We made space rockets and added them to our sailboat craft.

Today was square day so we learned about squares and made “Susie Squareskirt.”
We played candy land castle which is a game where you have to sort shapes.
We played a game of musical numbers. When the music stops, you had to sit next to a number. I called out a number and whoever had the number that time one.

Today was white day. Thank you for wearing white. Everyone named all the white things they were wearing. Then we played, “I spy something white.”
Our craft was to make a snowman.

Today we learned about the letter N and practiced writing it.
We also learned about puffins and created a puffin puppet for our craft. I read the children “The Puffins are Back.”
We also learned about pelicans and created “Three Little Pelicans” for our craft.
We sang “Penguins, Pelicans, Puffins.” In the song, we had to guess which animal the words were describing.
The children pretended to be Pelicans and went fishing. They each held a sandwich bag in their mouth. They ran to pick up a fish and then had to carry it back in their pretend bill (the sandwich bag.) I learned that they are all cheaters:) They kept getting more than one fish as a time. It was fun to watch.

We reviewed the names and sounds of the letters we have learned so far with our letter song. We also practiced writing the letter M.
We listened to the flannel board story, “The Elves and the Shoemaker.” Then we completed a storybook/workbook about the story.
We sang “Tap.Tap.Tap Goes My Little Shoe” and “Moving All Around” because they liked it so much.
The children used watercolors to paint and then spent the last 15 minutes outside for playtime.
