This week's book is the next installment of Pete the Cat and he is rocking in his school shoes! It is all good. We are still working with color words and our new rhyme is Jack and Jill. We also started our space unit which has J completely excited.
To start the week off, I made homemade play dough. I wanted an extra special play dough that had lots of glitter. I was really hoping for a deeper blue but this is what I ended up with. I added a whole container of silver glitter as well as little blue stars that I found in Ikea a couple of years ago.
I gave her a Space Ace badge and for every space related activity, she will earn a star on her badge. She though this was cool. She wanted to be a Space Ace.
She received a star for making this rocket. I found a printable astronaut and photo-shopped her picture on it. So she is riding in her rocket.
We made this rocket that had a rubber band underneath and J launched it into the air. While she was launching her rocket, we were practicing counting backwards towards blast off!
I printed some planets and astronauts for our felt board. After I laminated them, I added some velcro to the back so they would stick. She played with these for awhile. We are going to learn about the planets later, this week is for astronauts.
Our rhyme this week is Jack and Jill. J played doctor to Jack and glued bandaids to all of the "boo boo's" that Jack had after falling down the hill. She then proceeded to treat the rest of us (Kaleb, me, and her animals) as Doctor J.
Lastly, she started her Pete the Cat picture. I gave her several different blues and she painted on the cat outline that I printed out. We will add eyes and shoes later when he dries. Pete has to have shoes! We had a busy first day and I have tons of other fun stuff planned. Have a great day!
