This week we are still working on the letter Aa, #1, the color red and the shape circle.
So far he has the color red, #1, and the shape circle down pack. Still working on the color red, he keeps saying its blue. Guess blue will the next color and will try to help him distinguish the colors.
We worked on many different activities this week, mostly to help him work with his motor skills.
His sister wanted to have a camp out in the living room, while I was finishing things up I look up to see both of them looking through books. I pray that there love for books only continues to grow.
ACTIVITIES
His sister was working with her pattern sheets and he wanted to join in. He matched the shapes to the the pictures.
Got him a Melissa & Doug gear caterpillar for him to practice matching and for his motor skills.
Got a muffin tin for little man to match some of the ball pit balls with the correct colors. Used construction paper to cut out the circle shapes to place in the muffin tin.
For it to be his first time he did it perfect. Matched all 6 colors correctly with no help. Worked on this for almost 20 minutes and each time he did correctly he would yell "I did it".
I switched the colors around to get him thinking, at first he was a bit confused and I could tell he got frustrated at first. He tired taking the circles out and putting them in the order he had done it before. Mixed the colors again and he placed the balls correctly even though it through him off at first.
I made a light table using a long plastic bin and some small light from Dollar Tree inside the bin. Wrote out the letter A and the number 1 for him to trace with some heart beads, with help from me he completed it.
While I was on the table working on the lessons for next week for him and his sister he wanted to join me. Put the tray of beads and shoe laces for him to thread the beads. This was his first time doing this activity and he concentrated really hard and did it.
VIDEOS
Watched Leap Frog Let's Go to school, such a cute movie.
FIELD TRIP
Went to our local library for story and craft time, the theme this week was Mother's Day.
The kids enjoyed dance time
For craft the kids colored in a flower with chalk and then used tissue to spread the colors on the flowers.
Went to visit some friends, took a little break from school. Great spending time with these wonderful boys. They love each other so much.
My best friend who I consider family.
He loves him some Bella
Kids love dinosaurs and were excited to go to a class on dinosaurs with one of our local Park Ranger Mike.
Ranger Mike always makes his classes so much fun.
After going to the dinosaur class went to Sonics with the kids and some friends for lunch and play time. Best way to end the week.
