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 N), we'll often do an
activity celebrating that letter.
For the letter N, we made a LOT of noise. We talked about
different ways to make noise
-
with our mouths... singing,
-
with our hands... clapping,
-
with our feet... stomping,
-
with musical instruments
We also went for a walk and listened to the noises we heard. When
we got back home, we brainstormed to remember what all we'd heard (trucks,
dogs, wind, leaves rustling, etc).
You could go on a noise scavenger hunt with an adult. Make a list
of noises they have to hear. Then go for your walk and check them
off as you hear them. You could do this in two teams as a
competition or all together as a cooperative effort.
WHAT WE DO - CRAFTS: Make necklaces. Gather together
some beads (or fruit loops or cheerios) and some string or wool and make
your own necklaces. This is something my girls never tire of.
