Learning Letters

Inspired by my friend Beth, I have begun devoting each week to a letter of the alphabet, teaching Audrey the letter and doing activities associated with the letter. She can already identify most capital letters, and so we're reinforcing that, learning lower case letters, and introducing phonics. Last week we learned about the letter A, and this week we learned about the letter B. We cut out and color each letter, capital and lowercase, talk about what starts with the letter, do some coloring sheets, and then some more exciting activities too. Yesterday we had a picnic with our bear friends, ate "bear food" (tuna fish sandwiches, goldfish crackers, and berries) and read books about bears. Audrey was really into this activity, and did most of the set-up while I prepared food. Just wanted to share this highlight of our week! And a bonus picture, Audrey with our Valentine roses from Mr. B.
