Tot School- -Brown Bear- Letter E

Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you See?

Last week for Tot school we read Brown Bear... by Eric Carle
I found a cute lap book print out here, and a shadow matching game here.

    Brown Bear  Basket




Tot Trays:  Top; Minute to Win it game, glueing paper leaves, Triangle game w/ pom poms
                             Bottom; Blocks, Mr. Potato head, Brown Bear Basket, (not shown, stringing pasta)

                               
I really thought Lil D would like the Brown Bear Activities but Big D enjoyed them more.  Hmmm,  the best laid plans never actually go as you plan.
                                Shadow Matching


                                         
                                            Matching heads & tails...
                             

                                            Counting...


                                            Lil D's tot tray; pasta stringing



                 Trying to put Nuts & Bolts together...                                        

                                            Puzzle Time...



                                            Big D's creation...
Anything he could find in the room he used for his building


                                We worked on Letter E this week also...
                               Our Bible Verse for letter E was...   The Eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.  Proverbs 15:3
While coloring and writing we listened to this bible verse on Steve Green's cd...

I really like this cd because it is all scripture put into melodies which makes it easier for my boys to remember.

                                       Lil D and Big D worked on coloring and tracing their Letter E's

Then the rulers came out (the boys had been playing construction earlier and their tools came to the table with them, hence the rulers "measure twice cut once")  It was fun watching Lil D draw with his ruler!  He figured out very quickly how to hold the ruler to draw a straight line.
           Big D also used his ruler to make a railroad track and then cut it out...



Lil D stringing on shapes...
   We went to Nana's house later that week, Lil D loves doing this activity with her...
                                         


                            Playing with the GuideCraft 3d feel & find...


                               Lining up his trains on the magnetic white board...

                                Ta Da!

We had a fun week! I didn't really have a plan for this past week since it was right after Thanksgiving, but we made it work and had a fun time!

Thanks for taking the time to visit!
Blessings!!!
