It’s so difficult these days to keep up with blogging! Since I still work (at home) I always procrastinate updating my blog and would rather playing with the little one.
Here are the things we did last week.
Instead of doing Advent Calendar, we made letter crafts for our Christmas Countdown. I talked about it here.
We talked about polar bears. This Usborne Beginner’s book has wonderful book about polar bears. It’s been my son’s favorite since I got it for him.
I also made control cards based on our Arctic Toob for matching game.
For math, I downloaded these penguins activity cards from Making Learning Fun. Here, Mavi is learning how to measure the temperature by reading the thermometer:) On the other picture, Mavi is practicing his learning skills by feeding the penguins with “candies”.
He worked on his number puzzle.
We also did some patterning activities using printables from 2 Teaching Mommies.
Aside from reading books and learning to read words using this, we also worked on our Alpha Phonics Boxes... by sorting objects starting with letters ‘dejyjkwvz’.
