Well, I think we have finally started to work back in to routine which is good since I would like to get through the whole alphabet before we become a family of five!
So without delay, the letter P! Our theme was pumpkins! Some of our vocab words were: stem, vine, seeds, skin, and ribs. It was nice to do pumpkins in the summer becuase we went out to our garden and looked at the pumpkins growing. We also came up with some other words that began with P: pizza, pancakes, push, pull and Peter Pan. A had to make sure we included Peter Pan because it is her favorite. We made pizza and pancakes this week too, which was a lot of fun. Our poem for this week was:
I am a bird you know quite well,
All dressed in black and white.
And even though I do have wings
They’re not designed for flight.
I waddle, waddle, waddle.
We found some fun books this week: Hey, Pancakes by Tamson Weston, My P Sound Box by Jane Belk Monclure, Pink Takes a Bow by Christianne Jones, and Pink by Rebecca Rissman. We also decided to take some time and use the letter P to work on manners (saying Please, Thank You, etc.) So our wonderful librarian found some books to help us: Thankyouplease by Winters and Ortelli, Time to Say Please by Mo Willems, Manners at the Table and Manners in Public both by Carrie Finn
For our Bible time we read about Peter and our verse was from Romans 3:23 - All people have sinned and come short of
the glory of God.
In math we worked on patterns and the color pink.
Science time we looked at penguins, poppies, pandas, and a puffer fish. We also read about Pets by Gardner, Giant Panda by Edana Eckart, Penguins: Life in the Colony by Willow Clark and Platypus by Ginjer Clarke.
E really took to Pocahontas by Schaefer and Rosa Parks by Will Park during our social studies time.
For our art time we had a lot of fun working on puzzles, painting and or course playing with play dough!
