Nursery Rymes - 3

Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star and Star Light, Star Bright were the rhymes we focused on this week.

We worked on a simple star mobile where Emma traced a large star cookie cutter then used puffy paint to trace the star shape.  We cut them out and used different length strings to add them to a coat hanger.

We did some extra tracing work.

We read several books that I have in my space unit stockpile. 

Continuing to fill up our Nursery Rhyme Notebook and have just a few more to go until school is done.  Of course I will still do school in summer cause I am mean like that!  (Don't worry the girls love it.)  Thanks for checking out some of what we have been doing. 

Side note:  If any local friends ever do a space unit and need books to supplement I have quiet a few.

Nursery Rhymes

During a recent DEAR time (Drop Everything And Read) with Emma I pulled out a nursery rhyme book.  She loved it.  I used the nursery rhyme units on Totally Tots and Spell Out Loud as inspiration and am starting a nursery rhyme unit with Emma.  We are working on it two times a week

Here are a few pictures of our first 2 rhymes.

Searching for sheep

The happiness of finding!

She is loving it!  She loves learning and I am so glad for that.  We are doing some other farm related activities that I already had from previous farm units.  Most of the materials are too young for her but I am getting one last preschool use out of these activities before I retire them to someone else who could use them.

Here is the link to the site I printed the pages from.

Thanks for reading!
