Preschool Tot-School Weeks 7 & 8 Feb. 12-Feb.25

style="color:#000099;">Well this post is for last week and this week. Last week we did not get a lot done. Both boys had the flu and YES we did get the shot. They were so sick. B was much sicker than C. B had a fever for 5 1/2 days. So needless to say last week was a very long week. We did do a couple of things so I am just adding them to this week.

Before we were so sick:

President's Day- George Washington:

Read read several stories about Presidents and talked a lot about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln and the boys made these George Washingtons.

They also made these George Washington Cherry Trees. We had a great discussion about honesty with the George Washington Cherry Tree story.

Abraham Lincoln:

We made these Abraham Lincoln Log Cabins. They loved playing with the popsicle sticks. I think I will have to put some out and just let them explore and play with them. The boys put a penny in the window to make it look like Lincoln was looking out of the window.



Cars: Painting




The boys painted with their Cars. They LOVED this!!!! We did it several times this week because they kept asking to do it again. Such a big hit!!!

These next Car activities came from Time for Tots. You can find them here. We ordered the kit on line and boy has it been so much fun for my boys. Cars are their thing right now and so these activities have been done over and over and over this week.

Spelling the Car's Characters names:

;
Car's Character Puzzles

Playing Cars Roll the dice board game:

Sorting the Alphabet Cards by character--then matching upper and lower case letters

Fine Motor and pre-writing skills:

Roll Count and cover game:

Cars Puzzles: This is just one that we did this week. We have lots and we worked almost all of them this week.

Of Course we had LOTS of playtime with all of our Cars!!!!

We had a much better week. Thank goodness the boys are feeling better. We hope to do some Dr. Seuss activities next week!!
