Week 20: Qq is for q-tips

So I just realized why on last weeks why I never hit "publish" it was becuase I didn't finish it...hahaha...so if you want to finish reading about the letter P click here!! Sorry!!

Letter Qq...Q is a hard letter, not a lot of nouns that start with Q and kids have a hard time hearing the difference between Q and C/K.  I tried really hard to show them the difference in how our lips move when we say quack or crack...very similar words however our mouths move differently.  Something they will master someday, I didn't expect them to get it now!!  

We did Q-Tip painting for our letter Q this week...

 Music time :).  5 Little Monkeys and 5 Little Ducks...someone looks tired!!

 My ABC Helper found only 3 things in our ABC bag. A quilt, a queen and a quarter!

Thursday we made flowers out of q-tips and then talked about flowers.  We played this game, what does a flower need to grow.  We also looked at different kinds of flowers (thankfully it was just my birthday so I had some to show!)

 These were fun little flowers! I thought they turned out cute!

We also started our shape books.  We have been talking about shapes and about colors, so we started these little books this week and we will finish them over the next couple weeks when we have time to work on them. Today I saw lots of pink :)

 Here we are at our closing circle time, Do As I'm Doing...and Lady Bug Math!!
