Letter R

 Ravishing letter R! Our theme for the week was rainbows! The books we read this wee were: Raquel and the Letter R by Cynthia Klingel and Robert B. Noyed, Rusty Red The Sound of R by Cynthia Klingel and Robert B. Noyed, Velveteen Rabbit,  The Big Road Race by Stan and Jan Berenstain, and The Little Red Caboose by Marian Potter.

Our sentences this week were:
Do you run?
Read the new book.
Run away from the rhino!
Aunt Rena rings the bells.
The rabbit ran.
I hear the radio.

Our vocabulary words were: rainbow, ring, rain, rabbit, rope, run, and radio.

Our Bible verse was from Deuteronomy 26:11 "Rejoice in every good thing the LORD your God has given you."

For our science time we looked at some pitutres of: roadrunner, raccoon, rhino, ray, and rose. We also read about Raccoons in the Dark by Jean Claude O'Mara.

For our social studies time we read about Betsy Ross by Wil Mara.

For our art time we made rainbows. I drew the letter R on a blank piece of paper. I pulled out scrapes of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple construction paper. The girls glued the paper pieces in order for a rainbow. A didn't want to stay in the lines to much and we didn't have enough blue paper so they drew that color in. The girls had so much fun with this simple project!
