Ww is for...

This week we had two main sub categories under the letter W: Whales and Wonder Pets.  Here are some of the activities that we did and books we explored.

Whale Activities:

 - Do a Dot Whale art
 - Books: Whales and Face to Face With Whales (Face to Face with Animals)
 - Sink water play.

Wonder Pets Activities:

 - We watched The Wonder Pets Save Little Red Riding Hood (from the wolf).
 - Put lots of Wonder Pets stickers on a letter W.
 - Practiced writing the number 3 and colored the 3 Wonder Pets with this worksheet.
 - I made a list of things that start with W and had Sam find pictures of them in his  My First Look and Find: Wonder Pets, What s Gonna Work? Teamwork! (My First Look and Find) book.  When he found the picture I had him take a picture of it with the camera.  He loves using the camera!

 - Sam read Save the Three Little Pigs! (Ready-to-Read. Pre-Level 1) and played with the Three Little Pigs Magnet set I had made for the letter P.

A few other random activities:
 - graphing (one to one correspondence) with watermelon seeds using this from Confessions of a Homeschooler.
 - Read: Days of the Week (Read-It! Readers)
 - eating waffles!
 - making play dough worms.
 - looking for letter W's at the zoo today.

  2. Fun week - daughter really liked "Whales and Dolphins" book from I Wonder Why series. This one is made for younger kids and has flaps. So if your son is interested in whales, you might want to check it out.
