Each week we have a
special "letter of the week".
During the week, we make crafts that feature the
letter of the week and practice the upper and lower cases of the letter.
WHAT WE DO - ACTIVITIES: During the week
we're learning about a particular letter (in this case the Letter H), we'll often do an
activity celebrating that letter. Some ideas for the letter H are playing
Housekeeping and Homework...
Ok, ok these might not sound like much fun at first
glance, but give it a chance. Let your children pick a housekeeping chore that
they've been dying to help out with, but that you've never thought they were "big
enough" for (maybe vacuuming or laundry?) My girls both had a blast with the
vacuum cleaner!
And homework? Well, no one said they had to be the
student! Let them play teacher with you as the student (eager to soak up all the
knowledge they have to share!). They'll love planning the lesson, teaching you how
to write letters and do math and marking your papers (and believe it or not, they'll learn
from it too!)
