Good morning!
I’m so sorry! I realized just this morning that I posted my blog for yesterday to my other page again. I thought that I had double checked before it was posted but noticed it wasn’t here this morning. I put it over to this blog today so there will be two posts for today.
You can pick and choose which one you would like to do. Yesterday was just a fun book and some fun things to do. So sorry again! I will be extra careful to see where I am posting from now on.
Also don’t forget to check out the other pages on the main menu. There are lots of resources that I am posting on those pages. The chapters from Magic Tree House are on there if your child wants to hear the book.
Here is the video for today:
- Fundations: Practice printing the 5 letters. Print upper and lowercase
- Listen to the story: The Seed (in the video)
- Play Game: Hide Easter eggs in the house with letters inside. Then go and find the eggs and see what letter is inside. Draw a picture of something that begins with that letter. You could also put our trick words inside the eggs then hide, find and write those too. Easter egg Hunt List
- Math: Play counting on to 10 Count On Race
- Art: Make some flowers Circle Flowers (more challenging) Paper Flowers (easier)
- Science: Plant a seed in a bag Seed in a Bag Experiment
- Video: watch a video on growing seeds Quick Growing Seed. How a Seed Grows
Enjoy!

I love seeing all the smiling faces and all the busy hands working on different projects! Please remember to do what you can when you can and you are more than welcome to send pictures of what you are doing but it is not a requirement! I trust that you are all doing your best and kindergarten children learn best through play, love and experiences.
