As part of Kaleb's Kindergarten curriculum, we are working on Nursery Rhymes. We are using Nursery Rhyme Literature Pockets and our rhyme for the week was My Black Hen.
Kaleb loves the google eyes. Here, he is hamming it up for the camera. Silly boy.
Kaleb made a black hen using the pattern from the book. He used the hen while reciting the rhyme all week.
We talked about "en" words and I wrote them onto egg cut-outs. He glued them under the wings of his hen.
He played a game that I found in one of my Scholastic Books - Nursery Rhyme Math. He had to determine the nest that each chick belonged to. He has a series of sitting, standing, spotted, yellow, brown chicks to find their nests.
He worked on syllables with this cute hen game. Sorry, I can't find the link :(
Kaleb began the disappearing egg experiment. He added an egg to a jar and filled the jar with vinegar. He had to wait two days for the results. This idea came from Premeditated Leftovers (link below).
A couple of days later, we were able to see the results of the experiment - an egg without the shell. Pretty cool and slimy!
We also played a math game using our farm counters. He wasn't so impressed with it since I won. We are on to our next rhyme - Jack and Jill. See you soon.
