We are on day four of our Christmas unit on The 12 Days of Christmas. Our core book for this study is the one pictured by Helen Haidle. On the fourth day of Christmas, the four calling birds represent the gospels of the bible - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
J colored her sheet while I read.
Kaleb's ornament for four calling birds was a simple yarn wrapped bird that I found from I Heart Crafty Things (link below).
Each day, Kaleb uses his chart to follow along with our unit. This is one item that I haven't been able to get him to color but at least he is practicing his number writing.
J worked on her mini books for her lap book. She did some research on the four gospels - who wrote them, how many chapters in each, why they were written, etc... and wrote the information in her book.
Kaleb's finished coloring sheet, his bag book page, and his yarn wrapped ornament.
J;s finished items for the fourth day - her coloring sheet, mini books on the four gospels, and her ornament.
Four calling birds, not too bad. We are progressing nicely through this unit. Hope you are having a great day.
