Tot School- Letter of the Week



I mentioned in a previous post that we started Tot School so I've been meaning to share a few of our lessons!!

Colby is learning letter sounds so we make a letter each week that we get from Here!! It's also helped him to distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters.
It's very easy to use a letter and turn it into a lesson! Today we made the letter C with a caterpillar which turned into a lesson about the life cycle of a butterfly...so of course, we had to make a butterfly and then compare/contrast between caterpillars and butterflies. The lessons really could go on and on....if only his attention span could withstand!
Colby colored a coffee filter for the wings and then attached it with a pipe cleaner, which we call fuzzy sticks....
we also used fuzzy sticks for the antenna, and Ta Da.....a beautiful butterfly!!
 We finish the letter lesson by forming the letter with play-doh.....his favorite part!!
