New Activities

 Here are some new works on our shelves this week! I also included a few small group activities I will be doing with the children this week.

Using blocks to form the words on the cards by matching letters and colors.


                                               Spiral art.


                                  Matching hearts by colors.


                                              Using a dustpan.


           Tonging rose petals. The petals smell soo good!


                          Using the hearts to make patterns.


  Practing one to one correspondence by placing the penguins on the dots using craft sticks.


                                Sorting peguins.



Small group activity. We will be reading this book, learning how to use a stethoscope.


 Learning how to find our hearts, check our pulse and the parts of the heart. I am using this book for the parts of the body for the children to color. We will trace our bodies and the glue the part on the correct location once it is colored.

              Coloring sheet of the parts of the heart.

  
This page will become a part of their Human Body Journals. It has information about the organ that is in a lanugage they will be able to understand.


 Language work that I found on the website Homeschool Creations. The child names the pictures on the left and uses the dry erase marker to trace the beginning letters. I put book rings on this because there are three pages. The first page is capital letters, the next page is lowercase, and the last page the child writes on their own without tracing.

   Reintroducing weather words with a weather wheel color, cut, paste activity.


                            Our weather puppet.


  Make a snowman. I got the idea to add the letters to this work from the blog JADA ROO CAN DO.

Snow Day!

Old Man Winter is in his glory today ! Between last night and this morning Michigan has received over four feet of snow. Schools are closed . But guess whose open? Yup your right I have four children who had to still come today because their parents still had to work.  Luckily for me I am blessed to not have to go anywhere today.  Michelle stayed commited to her chore of shoveling the snow and DJ was eager to help. Ken is enjoying the company of her brother and sisters since she has been home from school the last couple of days due to strept throat.

Fall Is Here !

Today the children that were present went on a nature walk to see if  they could find any signs of Fall. The more we observed the more we found. Here are our finds described by the children.

                                                                   Big leaf.

                                                                           Orange leaf. 

                                                               Lots of big leaves.

                                                                     Small red leaf.                   

                                                     A tree with lots of  red leaves .

                                                                             A mushroom.

                                   Our collection of leaves we brought back from the walk.

                                     Now we are preparing our first nature table ever.
