A

The letter of the day is A

The Apple Tree
Way up high in the apple tree
Two red apples smiled down at me.
I shook that tree as hard as I could.
Mmmm...
Were they good!

Now, for the explanation of what we are doing. We pick a letter of the day (well, I do) and it goes with a rhyme in this case "The Apple Tree" . We say the rhyme, then Kenzie gets to act it out. And later today after school, we will be making Apple sun catchers and practicing to write the letter A. Kenzie's teacher gave me this website to promote her learning. I loved it so much that I decided to do the letter of the day thing every day so that I can continue her learning even through the summer time. I will probably figure out how to do the numbers, colors, and shapes too so that she will get it all. I will post a picture of the apple sun catcher after she makes them. I think that she will have fun with it. Have a great day and I look forward to a new letter tomorrow!

  1. I wanted to say thing when xander was little, i wanted to be able to do things with and have him actually understand what we are doing, lol. They do grow up quickly though. Our zoo was pretty little, but it was cute. I want to take him to the san fransisco zoo :D its really big.

    What is the website that you are using for the letter thing, i would love to do that with xander, he is just a learning sponge, he soaks up everything. He already knows most of his letters, but i would love to reinforce it :D

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems. Using the topic "Build with Me," we will read stories about building things and working together to solve problems. You can help your child learn more by talking with him/her about things she/he is doing at school and the new letters and words that he/she is learning. Here are some ways that you can work with your child at home. Think and Talk: What did y...

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
