I will start off by saying if there are any specific ways I can be praying for you, please feel free to message me individually and let me know. I am trying to devote specific time for praying each day and would love to know how to pray for your families.
Secondly, I think it is supposed to be warmer this week! I hope everyone can get outside, exercise, and explore as much as possible. That honestly is my biggest tip of the week. I will wait until next week (after the end of "spring break") to send any official activities that go along with the theme we would have done in class, but I will share a few things today!
1. There are so many ways to use outside time for learning... Get creative! Anna and I spent time hiking last week and counted acorns, listened to birds, watched crawdads, etc. You could even try making letters and numbers out of sticks or making patterns with plants!
2. Use letters and walk around outside looking for things that start with that letter and lay the letter on it. If your child is ready to write the words, give them a clipboard and a pencil to walk around and report what they see!
3. Work together to make towers as tall as possible! You could use these to work on addition... I add on five, you add on five, and together, we have 10. Have fun destroying them as well, of course.
4. Check out this AWESOME resource: Anna and I really like these because they involve a book, a video, and an activity. Make sure to do the activity together! https://classroommagazines.scholastic.com/support/learnathome/grades-prek-k.html (There are also options for all other ages for older kiddos in your family!)
5. Continue to challenge yourself to read at least 3 books together each day.
6. Find something to help you work on 3D shapes(or review 2D if needed). Anna is working on 2D shapes! :)
7. My mom sent me this link... www.playtolearnpreschool.us/virtual-preschool. Maybe not as great as an in-person story hour but a great option right now! Each day is also followed by a list of activity ideas like the one pictured below:
