Letter A

This week we learned the letter A and a.  The words to write those letters are: A - slant downward, slant downward and straight across.  a: circle around, straight up and back down.  This helps them write the letters "correctly".

We are also studying the ocean this month.  We watched a segment of  Disneynature's Ocean.  They loved seeing the whales jumping up out of the water.

We played a game (they brought it home on Thursday) about fishing.  The poem that goes along with the game is:

Fishy, fishy in the sea

jump in the boat for me, for me.

Fishy, fishy in the sea

what color fish will you be, be, be?

You can pick the color or they can, but make them tell you what color it is and then they can put it in the boat.

Here they all are eating their "A" snack - an aquarium!!  They loved it!
