Letter G Week!

Letter G Week!
G week was Great! There were so many fun things to make and do!
I introduced G week with the usual tracing the letter G worksheet.
Then I gave him a green window paint marker I had found at the dollar store and let him paint the back sliding door. I emphasized that Green starts with G and so does Glass.

Then we started with our projects!
A Gold Glitter G


Then we painted and colored the letter G Green


And other construction paper crafts throughout the week




We made our letter G book

We also did something a little different this week because there were just so many great ideas for the letter G

Green Glowing activities in the bathtub!


We made a Guitar!



We also found a Glowing Green lizard that Grew when you put it in water and we made green rice krispies as a snack one day and had grapes another day!

Letter F Week!

Letter F Week!
This week we learned about the letter F and had a lot of Fun with it! (see what i did there? ;)
I introduced the letter F with a print out from Twisty Noodle
This week I actually had this idea of reprinting all the previous letters, putting them in page protectors and putting them all in a binder and giving it to my son with a crayon or dry erase marker. I liked to keep it in the car along with an additional binder full of pictures to color that start with the letter of the week.
I let him make a feathered F




Then we made cupcakes. 
I know cupcakes don't start with F but just see where I went with it here, it'll make sense!



 I led him in counting the cupcake liners while he was putting them in.



See? It made sense!

While we were waiting for them to cook he also used the cupcake tin liners for a letter F activity


Of course we did other paper crafts throughout the week






And our handprint activity!
 We did a cut and paste activity from School Sparks
He had a Fantastic lunch!
It was a Fabulous week!

Letter D Week!


Letter D Week! There was so much to do this week! I'm sure that if I went back I could find even more to do!
I started this week with two printables one from School Sparks and a new one from Twisty Noodle.
I love that the printables from Twisty Noodle are customizable and free!
I also printed out things that he was already familiar with that started with D for him to color.


I took the C shaped road idea from C week and made it a little bigger and better and more durable than a piece of construction paper.
We also did a few more construction paper crafts!
He really loves to do these and responds well to them!

Of course we had our handprint craft!
And a few more worksheet activities from School Sparks
For our special snack we made Dirt!




 We also had chicken and Dumplings for dinner one night and Donuts for a snack one day.
We did two other projects that I didn't snap pictures of, I let him decorate a Donut coloring sheet and we put Dots on the letter D.
We had a bunch of fun with this week's letter!
