Swipe left 👈🏻 | Fee, fi, fo, fum I smell Jack and the Beanstalk learning fun! We started off with reading the classic story and talked about the settings + characters. Cove unscrambled his letter tiles to correctly spell the name Jack, we spoke of the importance of names always beginning with an uppercase letter and also the confusing same sound of the letter c + k. For art he drew the beanstalk and castle, giant flowers and used cotton balls for the big fluffy clouds. He used oil pastels, it turned out great! For some math he used 'magic' jelly beans and put the correct number on the corresponding flash card, he then had to say the numbers aloud from least to greatest. (We did this multiple times, switching the cards after every 3) the last activity was a great way for him to review all of the letters we've reviewed thus far. I simply took a paper towel roll and wrapped it in green paper (you could paint it too!) I used craft sticks and the scraps to create leaves (simply glue them on one side of the stick) on the leaves I wrote uppercase letters and on the 'stalk' I wrote lowercase letters. Poke holes along the stalk, all over. The object is to match the leaf to the stalk. You can use numbers, letters or even words for this fun activity. It was a lot of fun with Jack and the Beanstalk this afternoon, Cove did a fantastic job with all of his lessons so he received a golden egg! For our outside activity I drew giant foot prints using chalk and filled them in with sight words, he'll go jump around like a giant on them later on this evening!
