Letter H Week

Letter H Week









Letter H Week included all the normal stuff.
1. Make letter of the week into an animal ( H is for Horse)...check
2. Science Experiment=Hot and Cold air.  We all had balloons on top of water bottles.  We then put our bottles in cold water or hot water and watched what happened.  The cold water sucked the balloon inside of the water bottle.  The hot water needed more space and began to fill the balloon up with warm air.  We learned hot air needs more space and cold air doesn't...check
3. We played detectives and found all of the uppercase and lowercase H's...check
4. We had yummy snacks like:cookies/juice, ice cream cone cornucopia's filled with candy corn, nuts, pretzels and crackers. Plus oreo's with fruit snacks...check and thank you!
5. We made our alphabet book page.  Letter H is for hearts. We practiced our handwriting of letter H, both uppercase and lowercase...check
6. We read stories and talked about what we are thankful for. We are thankful for preschool, our families, friends, toys, food and healthy bodies!...check
7.  Our food experience was making pretzel/rolo turkeys with candy corn feathers.  This was fun and tricky. But, boy they were yummy!..check favorite thing we do every week!
8.  We had inside recess-sometimes we dance with rhythm sticks to music, sometimes we watch a 10 minute show on Netflix that has to do with the letter of the week, and sometimes we play games like duck..duck..goose.  I try to let the children choose.  They mostly choose watching tv....so I try to make it as educational as possible...check

It was another successful week.  I feel like if we get all our work done we are being successful.  Every week we review our word family and the letters we have learned. We sing songs, we eat, we learn, we play and have fun together! I enjoy your children so much and love spending time with them.  Thanks for all your help with snack, getting them here on time, encouraging them to practice things at home.  Your children are super smart, super cute and super happy! They talk my ear off all the time about all the fun things going on at their houses.  I know they come from wonderful families.  I am so grateful this time of year for your children and for you! Thank you again for all your support! 
Till next time, 
Miss Heidi
