Week 5 L ~ Leaf {10/3 - 10/7/2011}
This week we studied the Letter L, Leaf and the #3. Our usual day starts with what I call Circle Time. We sing and dance with motions to different songs (Hokey Pokey, He's got the Whole World in His Hands, and some other great kids songs I have found for helping kids with their fine motor skills) We then do the Pledge of Allegiance which the girls have already memorized and then we do our Calendar and Weather Charts. We talk about what day Today is, what Yesterday was, and what Tomorrow will be and we change the date on the calendar to a different color. We then talk about what the weather is like and change our weather chart to reflect that. After that, we usually start with our lesson assignments for the day.
For the Lesson on Leaves we went outside and collected a whole bunch of different shape leaves. We made a leaf book by tracing the leaves and coloring them in. We learned how leaves change colors, and we even laminated some leaves.
Our Biblical Concept this week was 'I will live and grow in Jesus", so we memorized 1 John 5:12 "He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. " We did a visual of this of going out and looking at the leaves on the trees and how they were healthy and alive when they were connected to the tree. Then we took two leaves off the tree and brought them inside and watched how they slowly started to die as they were not connected to the tree anymore.
