Preschool Days - T for Turtle

After going to the beach and taking some days off for school I thought it would be hard to get back into the swing of things, but it hasn't been difficult at all.  I think a little break was just what we needed!  This week we studied the letter T and talked about not quitting, but  persevering.   


Gluing ten triangles on the letter T was tons of fun!  It just happened to be the week to talk about triangles in math!  I must admit that these darlings LOVE glue almost as much as I do....who knew I should've purchased LOTS of glue during all the Back-to-School sales! 


Now that we have learned several consonants (t, l, m, n, s) and one vowel (a), we are able to work on blending! Both J & C were able to blend s-a-t on the first attempt!  They were very excited to be reading!


(Side note - Since we are "readers" now, we ended our time today with C "reading" to us from the Bible.....C taught us about several things, not necesarily in this order - for such a time as this, being baptized and going to heaven, 1066.....in Bethlehem, Jack Spann trusted God without disobeying, God told Satan what to do, there is a true God Christ in the Bible and some spontaneous singing at the end. Glad they are thinking about our Lord at such a young age. Excited to see them grow in wisdom and stature in the years to come.)

how creative, Winnie! I love it! And it sounds like a wonderful Bible "lesson" to end on too :)
