We had a short week at school this week due to a meeting I had on Monday and the abundance of ripe bananas I came across on Friday.  So we really only had three days of school this week.  Next week we will continue on with D and review old letters and activities.  Next week will also be a short week because we head into town on Monday to take care of our TRP’s.  Here are some of our activities from this past week.

Letter D, birds and scones 020

We made a letter D duck with paint, feathers and construction paper.

Letter D, birds and scones 022

We worked on patterning using pom poms.  She did really well with this so next time I will extend the patterns and maybe leave a blank spot to see if she can figure out what would come next.

Letter D, birds and scones 032

We clipped letter clips to spell her name.

Letter D, birds and scones 039

We practiced counting by choosing a magnetic number and placing it on the card with the correct number of stars.

Letter D, birds and scones 042

We made a D dinosaur.  I had hoped to do some more dinosaur activities but she didn’t act too excited about it so we didn’t!

Letter D, birds and scones 043

We had a quick review of B and C by placing B’s in a bowl an C’s in her cookie jar.

Letter D, birds and scones 044

We rolled a dice and put stickers on the number that was rolled.

Letter D, birds and scones 045

We stacked dice on top of each other like blocks.

Data confirmation and other stuff 002

We played with an alphabet uppercase and lowercase puzzle (only the letters we had studied so far though, I didn’t want to overwhelm her).

Data confirmation and other stuff 004

And of course we made deviled eggs.  She was very meticulous with peeling the eggs (an added bonus is it worked on he fine motor some).  She of course loved helping in the kitchen and as you can see below enjoyed eating the deviled eggs even better!

Data confirmation and other stuff 006

Like I mentioned earlier, next week will be a review of letters and continuation of our letter D study.  We will move on to E the following week!
