Preschool Pickins - Letter J

I couldn't find my phone a few days that we did letter J, so I didn't take many pictures showing our numerous activities.  I will add more pictures when we revisit letter J!

~~~~~~~~~

J is for jacket.

J is for jelly beans.

J is for jump!

J is for joy.

J is for Jesus!

Preschool Pickins - Letter H

So letter H is the focus here, but of course we have h-h-heaps more.  Here are some things we did this week, as well as letter H activities.

Lacing letter H

~~~~~~~~~

Put an X on the objects that are different.

(After thinking about it, I should have had him try to write letter H!)

~~~~~~~~~

Find and circle every Hh

~~~~~~~~~

Large, medium and small -  circle the smallest owl, apple, and leaf.  Circle the largest squirrel, acorn, and raccoon.

~~~~~~~~~

Cover letter Hh (maze) with hearts to get the hammer to the nail!

~~~~~~~~~

Color just eight smiley faces.  He didn't exactly follow directions but he did this as quickly as my 8 year old would.  I was impressed. :)

~~~~~~~~~

I found this at a dollar store in our mall.  You guessed it, it was $1!

~~~~~~~~~

Sorting colors with the $3 grabber Daddy bought Bug at Target's Dollar Spot

~~~~~~~~~

Sorting Cuisenaire Rods by color

Can you tell which colors are Mr. Guggle Buggle's favorites?

~~~~~~~~~

Forming letter Hh with Cuisenaire Rods

~~~~~~~~~

Upper/lowercase match-ups.

This is one of his favorite things to do because he's so good at it.  So, we do it a lot because he feels so great about himself when he is finished.

 

~~~~~~~~~

It was a short week with letter H, but I will add more activities as we get to them.  :)

Preschool Pickins - Letter G

Letter Gg

 (Okay, there's more here than letter G.  It's how it is. Show me some g-g-grace.)

~~~~~~~~~~

God is good!

GOD starts with letter G!

"Let my people GO!"

~~~~~~~~~

We read about God's people marking their doors with lamb's blood so the oldest boys in each house would be passed over and not die. 

Mommy: "The king didn't listen to God and now he's sad.  Do you listen to God?"

Bug: "Yeah, and then my son won't be dead."

~~~~~~~~~

G is for

God
Giraffe
Glue
Green
Glove
Golf Ball
Girl

and so much more!



~~~~~~~~~

Bible verse:



~~~~~~~~~

I started doing letter recall with letter magnets and a cookie sheet this week -  just 4 at a time each day so Bug isn't too confused.

X N W A, I'm gonna take one letter away, which one is missing?

I turn the cookie sheet around so he can't see, remove a letter, and ask him to recall it.  He loves this! 



~~~~~~~~~

Let's fill our cup with green.



Cup o' green!



Now, let's play "I Spy".  I think we might spy something green.  



~~~~~~~~~

Magnet letter uppercase/lowercase match-ups.  



~~~~~~~~~

Green starts with G.  Let's tear green paper and glue it to the letter G.  Or not.  You'd rather cut the paper?  Sure. :)



Completed Green Glued G!




~~~~~~~~~

Lacing Letter G 



~~~~~~~~~

Letter G toothpick poke.  We use a towel instead of laying on the carpet because B doesn't like the whole get-down-on-my-belly-and-do-work thing.



~~~~~~~~~

Name puzzle

(Hey, red and car do not start with G.  Neither does my name, Mommy.)



~~~~~~~~~

Can you name and match all the green upper and lowercase letters?  Yes, yes you can!




~~~~~~~~~

Covering letter Gg with googly eyes to get the goat to the grass!




~~~~~~~~~

Cutting and gluing gorillas on letter G!



~~~~~~~~~

We use sheet protectors and dry erase markers so we can reuse our worksheets. 

Tracing letter Gg and coloring things that start with letter G!

Great job using your pinchers!




Circle capital and lower case G!




~~~~~~~~~

Mr. Guggle Buggle actually asked when bedtime was coming, so Mommy snuggled him into the pack-n-play. Preschool is tiring!
