Today we started our Letter of the Week, C, and our Number of the Week, 2. Reese really enjoyed hand-over-hand tracing with our Number 2 sheet. I think he likes learning numbers better than the alphabet! Hopefully he will understand the concept of the letters soon and enjoy them more too. We also did our seasonal page, illustrating "April showers." :) Reese liked the concept of the rain and the umbrellas.
For our Continent of the Week, we are studying Africa. Reese was very intrigued by the lion, of course, and the island Madagascar. :)
We are in a Green Eggs and Ham rut with his reading--it is all he wants to read. But I don't really mind it much, because he is learning how to recite parts of it that he remembers. However, it limits our vocabulary...most of the words we focused on were from the map today.
Vocabulary words:
Africa
Pyramids
camel
hippo
Madagascar
lemur
ocean
We did some imaginary play out on the porch, and since we're still under the weather, called it a day after that. It will take some time to get in the full swing of things. Happy Monday!
