Happy Chinese New Year! My wonderful neighbor sent down some fun craft projects to do and the kids loved these. The Chinese dragons are just the coolest!
I didn't do many lap trays last week because well, I just didn't have time to pull them together. Meg has been pretty interested in writing so I printed off these cool pre-writing worksheets from Confessions of a Homeschooler. You have GOT to check this woman out, I print off some of the best stuff from her website and I don't know how she manages to pull all this together while homeschooling her 4 little ones. Amazing.
Then we did some worksheets that I had here.
And some practice cutting with scissors. Megan has an obsession with cutting things. Luckily it hasn't been hair or clothes but she's always wanting to cut with scissors.
Strung heart beads onto pipe cleaners.
Colored this cute vase of heart flowers and then she glued on conversation hearts. She matched them to the colors mostly and initiated that by herself!
Letter of the Week -
V is for Valentines!
V is for Valentines!
Practicing writing V's.
We took a trip to the zoo last Monday (apparently with everyone else...grrr.) being that Riley had the day off from school. We went to see the Night Exhibit as they are closing it on March 1st due to budget cuts. There was such a long line to get into it that I made us skip it. After 2 hours of massive crowds and not being able to get up close to the animals, we left and went to play at a park. I'm glad we have a membership for days like this that I would've wasted $40. I still hope to take them back this week so we can get in to see the nocturnal house.
