Iata o parte din activitatile din aceasta saptamana:
Cats Theme (from 1+1+1=1)
Since my daughter is in love with cats - and so are we all, we have 3 cats - I've decided to have a cat theme this week, using the free printables from 1+1+1=1.
Introducing our oldest cat, Cesar! |
Matching words to pictures |
Attaching a clothepin to the beginning sound - first time she did this sort of activity, with clothepins and she did very well, all by herself. |

She repeated it the next day. |

Pasting into the right spot |
Singing "I'm a little cat!"
French Learning
We had our 2 days of French this week(when we focused on French music, books, conversation and DVDs, all in French), and that went really well. Here are the books we read this week:
And here she is, flipping through the Dora book from above (Jour de pluie) - unfortunately, I switched the phone's position, so you're going to have to twist your neck a bit to be able to see it:)

This girl loves to pour! So I let her... |
Dry pouring tray: beans |
Transferring colored water |
Giving Dinosaur a shower |
Ok, this picture tells it all! |

Educational Toys and Free Play
She loves the Word Whammer, although I don't like it that much, as it teaches letter names as well - I've been avoiding that, trying to focus on the letter sounds, to help her read (with phonics).

Farm puzzle, toys |
and pretend play, matching animals to the puzzle |

ReplyDeleteMy Daughter loved the Cat theme from 1+1+1 too! We did that preschool pack a few months ago! I love the "dinosaur shower"

I love all your fun activities. It is interesting that you are not teaching the letter names! It really makes sense! I spent last year teaching my daughter the letter names, now I have to turn around, do them all again and teach her the sounds! Great job!
ReplyDeleteMy girls would love the butterflies in the rice bin! Great job!
ReplyDeleteCe imi place setul ala cu fluturele, Adina! Cat a costat?
ReplyDeleteMultumesc pentru pontul cu Carturestiul! De cand cautam si noi fluturi si omizi!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun week! Live the kitty :) and these activities! Our week is broken up a bit because of dads days off but I might have to come back with a post to link up! Have a great week!
