Hello Friends and Families,
What did everyone do yesterday? I was able to go outside to work on our activities for today. I hope you enjoy them. Our calendar change was approved last night. The change will have our school week moving to a 4 day week in lieu of a longer spring break as originally planned.
This blog is to help all of you through this time at home. These are all suggestions for you to have in one location; if you find, that you need additional resources for your child. Our key word is Flexible and that is very important when working with young children. If you are in need of other resources, please just contact me.
Please note it is important to keep in mind your child's IEP goals. These skills may be addressed through the provided activities as well as the very natural everyday interactions such as daily routines and play. Play with your child as play is a child's work. All areas of development - cognitive, social/emotional, motor, and speech/language skills are achieved through everyday activities including play.
Remember learning is a process! Please do not rush through activities and to refer to previous posts to repeat an activity that was a favorite. It is great to repeat activities as our friends learn through practice of repeated activities. I will continue to send a morning email each school day with links to this page, my video, along with Ms. Cosgrove's morning message. It is important to email me your child's attendance, by 10am, each day so I may record it. Please continue to email me your pictures. I love seeing your faces!
Theme: Easter/Bunny
Letter of the Week: Vv
Suggested Activities
Storyline Online - The Tale of Peter Rabbit
Bunny Handprint Craft
Below is a link to the directions for this craft. If you have another bunny craft idea that you have materials to do, please do that with your child. The goal is to encourage fine motor skills.
Egg Hunt
Have your child write letters uppercase/lowercase/both and place in the eggs - no eggs, you write letters on egg shape papers. Next, put each letter into the eggs. Manipulating the Easter eggs proved to be a great way to practice fine motor skills! No eggs - hide papers. Once all the eggs are found, have your child identify the name and sound of the letter. You may write the letters on a matching sheet and have your child find the matching letter on the sheet. This activity can be done with numbers, too!
Letter Vv Weekly Activities
Letter Vv songs
Letter Vv - Mystery Box
Find and place 5-7 items/pictures that begin with the letter Vv. Have your child label each item/picture - talk about the item/picture - place items/pictures in box. Have your child recall the items that have been placed into the box. Repeat this activity daily with your child. Some items/pictures will be recalled easily - others may require a clue. Make this into a game with your child. This is an activity that we do during our circle time and was enjoyed by all.
Scholastic
Explore the issue - A Teeny Tiny Nest - March 2020
Read through the issue as well as watch the videos and play the games. Your child enjoys our My Big World Scholastic activity at school so I am sure this will be great to do at home.
