February Leftovers

A little of this and a little of that from February.  By the way it was really cold last month, which meant zero motivation to get dressed and less laundry for me!

Practical Life

This was a great activity to practice the pincer grasp.  

Math - What is Valentine's Day without candy heart activities?

Sensorial

Candy heart sorting.  How many do you think were ingested during sorting?

Literacy - A lot of sight word practice this month.

The Wee One's letter practice - Letter M

Art - Watercolor coffee filter hears

Building an M

Building an M was pretty difficult for G and H, but they were able to do it with a lot of help.  They glued mafalda, macaroni, and mostacholi on it.  The glue puddles reminded me why I love glue sticks and the glue puddles reminded them why they love school glue.

Letter M

We are continuing our exploration of the letters despite G and H knowing all the letters and most of the sounds.  A little reinforcement never hurt anyone.

We started off the Letter M by mixing paint to make magenta which turned out more maroon, but have you ever mixed colors with three-year-olds.  They don't really understand just a little.  You either get nothing or a ginormous glob. 

We rolled marbles around the M with the mixed paint.

Finally we made mittens with hand prints.
