Week 24 - Letter L

Last week was Letter L - for ladybug.

The memory verse was Matthew 5:16 - "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."

Coloring page - she wrote Dad and Mom at the top.  :)

These are still difficult for her to do on her own, but great practice.

Phonics page - she does really well with these!

She made her body into the shape of the letter L.

I just happened to have ladybug stickers to use for her letter maze.

Letter writing

Geoboard

Number writing - I like how these pages continue to give her practice with writing her letters.

Grant wanted to share his geoboard too.

Letter L Pattern Blocks

For her ABC book, she used leaf stickers to cover the letter L.

I love this Kumon number writing book!  I've noticed her number writing improving.

Letter L do-a-dot

We've started working on learning to read.  I picked up the first set of Bob books at a garage sale.  Each book introduces a new letter and it's sound.  Then that book only uses those letters in the story.  Then the next book introduces a few new letters and uses the letters from the previous book(s) as well as the new ones, so it keeps building with the letters.  It's been neat to see her picking up on sounding out the words, although she tends to look at the pictures on each page and make up what she thinks the words say instead of sounding them out.  Or she'll add words that aren't there.  So it's a process of having her point to each word, encouraging her to sound out the letters and then go back and reread it.  It's definitely a process, but neat to see her learning!

She put the letter L up on our coconut tree.

For a craft this week, we painted rocks to look like ladybugs.

The finished product

Grant decided to make his into a spider instead.  :)
