Belated Review of the week at Ms. Julie's House

Sorry I didn't update the Blog for my week, until now.  We focused on the letter F, for fish.  I made some cards with pictures of things that start with F, such as Fish, Fox, Flower etc....  I then made a fishing pole out of a lg. Popsicle stick some ribbon and a clothespin (I left this in the box for future use, if you are interested).  I let the kids take turn fishing for the cards and we talked about each one, emphasizing the F sound on each one.  They absolutely LOVED fishing!!!!  For our craft we made mosaic tissue paper fish and attached them to their own little fishing pole.  For our snack time we played a little game of "Don't Eat Pete!" using goldfish crackers.  It took them a little time to understand how to play but once they got it they didn't want to stop.

The next day we focused on the shape Octagon.  we watched a classic sesame street clip on the octagon shape.  I made a sm. stop and go sign for each of them and we played red light green light.  We talked about the octagon having 8 sides so for our craft we made an Octopus out of an octagon.  They needed a little extra help with this craft so I let the kids play outside while I helped each one individually.  For snack time we had PB&J sandwiches cut into an octagon shape.  We then read books about fish until the moms came.

Sorry I have no pictures this week, but I took this one of the crafts we did (they turned out so cute!) ;)

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to be with all of your wonderful children.  We have soooo much fun together and I love coming up with cute creative things to do with them.  I can't wait for my turn again :) 

I also update the pumpkinland field trip pictures....take a look!
