To improvise is a natural process for children.
If you are without a bat… use Christmas wrapping paper!
Can’t find a baseball? Why, use any ball you’d like!
I am really enjoying the younger kids. Maybe because it’s bitter-sweet knowing this is my last round at it!
Last week was Letter Nn:
We learned about nightingales!
We colored them, made nests, and created cheerio birdfeeders.
We also listened to their birdsong.
For science we have been learning about the senses:
This week was the Sense of Touch:
We created a textured nature page;
soft, hard, smooth, crinkly, scratchy, bumpy, etc…
We also used the goop, glurch, silly putty, and slime that we made during Spring Break…
Hands-on Math:
Counting money.
and size-sorting Katie-girl’s homemade nesting origami boxes.
There are 12 in all! …down to the teeniest box ever, lol.
We also made cookies, went on a nature stroll, and practiced writing our last name.
Love the littles~ they keep life lively! =)
So fun!! You are so great about keeping your blog updated and always with great photos. Love the ideas!
Thanks Robin, but considering we’ve read each others blogs for a while now, I have to admit I am a bit more unorderly this year than usual, lol. just one of those things i suppose. =)
