Our home-preschool journal

Our Home Preschool Journal and Lesson Plans. My goal in "teaching" my children at home is to let them be little and learn through play and investigation, with and WITHOUT my help! My hopes for this blog is to keep good records of our projects and themes with reflections of my kids doing them. This blog is mainly for me, but maybe you might find a project for your sweet littles too.

There was an Old Lady who Swallowed...

A Fly  and A Pie!!
We used both these books this week.  Starting with the traditional one for a couple days, then did the Pie for the last couple days.  I thought the Pie book would lead us right into our Thanksgiving theme!  Along with our books we did lots of repetition and sequencing this week.

Letter: Yy
Color:  White
Number:  11
Verse:  You are my friend if you do what I command of you.   Lots of good discuss with this verse and others this week, like "Honor your Father and Mother" is what God commands you. :))) 

Books we used: 


Highlights:
Magnet retelling

more magnets (we did a lot with magnets this week) Number correspondence

Well, Tuesday we did nothing "themed" so I took a picture of the trays for the day.  Hoping to refinish an old bookshelf and get new trays after Christmas.

This is the best and longest she has laced these things! Yay GB!

Acting out the story!  It's okay to laugh at our old lady! ;)) plastic jar,yard,felt and my apron!  It was great fun and you would be amazed at all the stuff that lady ate! ;)

About to eat a slinky dog. :)

lacing foam beads, and of course making it a pattern

Luke chose all the round ones. Hard at work!

This was her favorite and we repeated often and with the "pie" book pictures
Magnet pictures-find the letter it starts with, then write the letter on her glitter bag.

something new- (1+1+1=1) Letter mazes with magnet pompoms.  We printed several letters and it kept her busy for awhile!

Retelling cards and used here for beginning sounds
printable from..? Pinterest :)

Finally, making mini Pumpkin pies

Great way to share your pies; Minis

We used white bread sandwich and moz cheese with peeled apples for our white lunch.  We called our sweet potatos - Yams. :) Fun lunches were kinda boring this week, except for the reading and retelling of one of these books everytime we sat down at the table.  I introduced the book while they were eating on Monday.
