Welcome back to our Letter of the Week Preparatory Curriculum update! Last week we were talking about the jungle; this week’s theme was Kittens!
This week I was able to find two books to use for our theme. We used Curious Kitties by Sam McKendry and Touch and Feel: Kitten by Jane Burton.
Simon enjoyed both books but he seemed to prefer Curious Kitties!
Simon didn’t do much coloring on our learning poster this week. Of course, we don’t learn a color until next week, so next week the diamond (our shape) will be colored in. Zachary cut out the letter C for us, hence the messiness! We did put 3 kitten (Hello Kitty!) stickers on our number 3. The word of the week was “claws,” which I showed Simon in the pictures in the Touch and Feel Kittens book. We have not yet started the rhyme of the week.
Next week’s theme is Eyes! I am not sure if I will continue with Kittens though, because due to Rosh Hashanah it will be hard to add to our learning poster in the early part of the week! Once again, I’m not sure we have a book about Eyes, but I will look for one!
