Little Miss Muffet (part 2)

We finished off the week with plenty of activities. J really enjoyed the Little Miss Muffet rhyme. We conducted an experiment about curds and whey. What exactly are curds and whey? We started with some milk and pour some vinegar into it.

We waited overnight and this is what we saw.

You can't really tell but the milk separated into two parts - the chunky parts are the curds which cottage cheese and cheese are made from and the runny part was the whey which yogurt products come from. I asked J is she would drink it and she shook her head no.

J worked on writing numbers to 20 in the spiders.

Then we played a spider web game to practice her sight words. Each section had a sight word written in it and when she landed on the word, she had to read it.

Lastly, J made finger puppets to act out the story. She wasn't impressed with the yucky spider but she liked Miss Muffet. We finished our week out and we are moving on to another great book and nursery rhyme. See you then.
