January 28th -February 1st. Letter M Week

Letter M Week

M is for Mountains, Moon, Mouse, Monkey, M&M's, Mustache, Music and much much more.  What an incredibly fun week.  I think I say that a lot.  But seriously, we do have FUN! We also learned the number 3 this week.  Sadly no pictures of anything with the number 3.

 

On Monday, We made our Letter M Poster. 

We sorted M&M's by color.

Then we counted how many M&M's of each color.

Then we made the letter M with our M&M's. And then, we ate the M&M's all gone.  I am guessing that was everyones favorite part.

On Wednesday, We made our Letter M alphabet page for our book.  M is for Monkey. And we practiced writing the letter M, uppercase and lowercase.

We played a name game.  The whole table was filled with letters.  Hundreds of letters. The kids had to find the letters in their name and then glue them to a paper.  Then they spelled their names out loud to me.

To go along with our stories this week, we talked a lot about mittens.  This project helps us learn our left hand and our right hand.

On Friday, we read the Mitten Tree and painted Mittens to help us remember the story.

We read the Mitten on Monday and Wednesday and did some fun activities to help us listen and remember what we had read.  Ask your child what animals were in the Mitten?  There was a Mole, Rabbit, Hedgehog, Badger, Owl, Fox, Bear and a Mouse.  This is a great story.

 

We had some super fun snacks this week like, granola bars, m&m's, gogurts, fruit roll ups, animal crackers and drinks.  Thanks you all for being on top of snack when it is your turn.

 

We also sang songs, learned about the number 3, checked out the letter M on starfall.com, painted hand print hearts for our Valentines Day Bulletin Board, said goodbye to January and Hello to February, gave our 2 friends that start with the letter M a cheer and so much more.  See you all next week for the letter N and the Number 4.

Sincerely,

Miss Heidi
