Letter 'G' and Necklaces


This past week we worked on the letter 'G'. One of the highlights of every week is putting together the alphabet page for whatever letter we are working on. This week the kids got to put green scraps of paper on their 'G' alphabet page (because green starts with 'g'). They then cut out picture that start with the 'g' sound and glued them to the paper, as well. As usual, this is quite the messy project as we work to improve cutting and gluing skills...I am seeing progress, though! The kids also got to make a human 'G', which is also a favorite activity!

We also talked about the first Thanksgiving this past week. On Tuesday we focused more on the pilgrims and on Thursday we focused more on the Native Americans. In the book we read the Indians wore necklaces. The kids got to make a necklace on Thursday, just like the Indians had in their story. This was probably the highlight of the week. The kids loved this project! I am sure you had a chance to see their completed look!
