Letter Q Week and St. Patricks Day Party March 11th-15th

Letter Q Week and Celebrating St. Patrick's Day

 

On Monday, we made our letter Q poster with all things letter q.  Q is for question mark, queen, quilt, quail and quarter.  We also learned that q is almost always followed by U. We learned how to recognize uppercase and lowercase Q as well as its sound.

These are the Leprechauns we made with our hands. I'm obessed this year with things made from handprints, if you haven't noticed.

On Wednesday we made our alphabet page for our alphabet book.  Q is for quilt.  This page is awesome because it has a handprint from almost everyone in our class.

This is our amazing 12 layer rainbow jello that we made on Wednesday.  We only got through with 6 layers, so Miss Heidi finished it up and we ate it as part of our snack for our St. Patricks Day Party on Friday.

 On Friday for our Party, we made paper Rainbows with cottonball clouds-these are simply adorable.  We wish we had a tiny little pot of gold to put at the end of it. 

Along with our Rainbow jello on Friday, we also made and ate oreo's dipped in white chocolate and topped with green sprinkles.

These are the books we read about Leprechauns this week. Tricky lads they are!

We also, checked out the Letter Q on starfall.com

Sang Leprechaun songs

Worked on the number 7 recognition, writing it and counting to

They love the old sesame street video clips on the numbers (on youtube)

We ate fabulous snacks, like rainbows over goldfish and crackers with cheese and juice

We played outside, doing sidewalk chalk and having races.  So glad we can go outside and get our wintery wiggles out.

We played Leprechaun games like, Who took My Gold, Matching Uppercase and Lowercase Alphabet Letter Shamrocks, and Run Leprechaun Run.

Another fabulous week has come and gone. 

 

Next week, is all about the Letter Rr, its sound and writing it.  Along with, the number 8. I'm also moving the Season Spring topic up to next week (since the first day of Spring is next week-Yeah!).  And then the following week we will learn the letter S, number 9 and All about Easter Fun with our Easter Party being on March 29th. 

 

Thanks for all of you who helped out with snack this month and are taking a turn twice.  I couldn't do this without help, so thank you.  Just a reminder that April 1st-5th is Spring Break and there will be no school.  I will be scheduling class pictures at Target during the month of April too. 

Have a sunny weekend,

Miss Heidi
