G’s & H’s

What a zoo it was today! Laughing… the kids must have had excellent weekends, because they came full of energy! I love it though, they make me laugh, and there energy is contagious so you just can’t help but be happy with them.

Grace got to take Mr. Spark home, and was so excited to share her stories with us…

We then talked about things that start with the letter G. They said things like, Goat, Ghost, Grace, and Go. Then we discussed the same thing with the letter H. Head, hat, hand and hello were what they came up with.

They all did excellent at writing the upper and lower case letter. I was very impressed!!!

Then it was more practice writing our G’s & H’s. I was working on proper technique with them. Making sure they look perfect. For the most part they all have these two letters down! Yeah!!!

I love watching them use scissors. They are getting so good at cutting on the lines. I love encouraging them along the way when they say they “I can’t” do that. I love to see the look on there face, and here the excited “I did it,” when they are done!!!

Aren’t they just so darling!!!

We introduced some new site words today; or, her, there, this, some. We repeated these a lot today. Using them in various sentences. Repetition is very important while learning something in such a short period of time.  Please continue to repeat these words, and practice them and the previous words with them. THANKS so much for you help.

I am grateful for my little Zoo, even on crazy days like today. These kids make me so happy. I love being a small part of there lives.
