3+ Things on October 19

Hey, I'm only six months late with this post, and it isn't even that exciting. It's just another glimpse into our daily classroom lessons. All of this was completed within two hours and probably included a snack (and definitely at least one cup of coffee for Mommy).

1. Writing Uppercase Letters (HAT, SAT) - We turned this one into a rhyming lesson, too.

2. Identify 2D Shapes - This is one of her weaknesses. She's great at identifying triangles and circles, but she confuses squares and rectangles, and polygons are a bit too much right now.

3. Folding and flying paper airplanes - She loved racing our airplanes and predicting whose would go further. (She consistently said she'd win because she's still in that "if I say it's true, it's true" phase.)

4. Candy Land - Taking turns, playing fairly, and winning/losing graciously are skills that need practice.

5. Tracing Uppercase Letters - Zelda helped me make labels for the shelves. I wrote the words in pencil, and she traced them with a marker. (MATH, LANGUAGE, SCIENCE, etc.) The classroom is her space, and she enjoys improving it with these small projects.
