Week 24: The Letter X

The letter X, how eXciting you are! We didn't do a theme this week since the letter X is so unusual in its use. Our vocab words were: x ray, fox, box, and ox. Our poem for the week was Extra Special X by Katrina Lybbert:

Excellent, exciting letter X!
So extra special is letter X.
Fox, box, mix, wax,
Phlox, ox, six, tax.
Always an adventure to explore,
With letter X, which we adore!

The books we enjoyed this week were: Hattie and the Fox by Mem Fox, The Crayon Box that talked by Shane DeRolf, Six Little Chicks by Jez Alborough and My X,Y,Z Sound Box by Jane Belk Moncure.

For our Bible time we did Genesis 16:13 "You are the God who sees".

In science time we looked at phlox and fox.

For our art project this week we took a large letter X and colored and decorated it.

As I said in the beginning we didn't do to much with the letter X, but we still enjoyed the sound this letter makes and how unusual it is in the English language!
