LETTER OF THE WEEK:  ALL THE LETTERS OF THE ALPHABET!  We have studied all 26 letters!  Hooray!  Sing the ABC song!




MATH:

The Shape of the Month is a diamond.  A diamond shape is a rhombus.  A rhombus has 4 equal sides and opposite parallel lines.

Lila's number poem!

In spring time, Baseball games begin!  The game of baseball is played on a field that is shaped like a diamond!  Can you draw a green baseball diamond and label the Home plate with an H, 1st, 2nd and 3rd base?

The Number of the week is 9.  Speaking of baseball, there are 9 players on a baseball team and those teams play 9 innings!

Practice writing the number 9, tracing the number 9, or form the 9 with small stones or dough.

This week's card trick, find the number 9 card with a diamond shape on it.

SCIENCE: Today is Day 9 on our Caterpillar watch.  I wonder if any have spun their chrysalis!






Day 1
Day 4

Day 8


This butterfly schedule has the dates at the top. The numbers in the squares are the number of days for each stage.  We are currently on day 9 of our caterpillar stage watching them eat and grow.  Around day 7 they will crawl to the top and spin a chrysalis.  That will need 3 days to harden.  Then we wait 7 to 10 days for them to emerge from their chrysalis as a butterfly.  We are hopeful this will happen before our last Zoom meeting.  If they have not, we will schedule a viewing!  It is all up to Mother Nature.


Butterfly fact:  Butterflies feed on nectar from flowers.  They have taste receptors on their feet!  They have six feet.  What do we taste with?

Yesterday we talked about metamorphosis.  That is a big word, clap it out: MET A MOR PHO SIS..5 parts to that word.  A frog also goes through Metamorphosis.

MUSIC or MOTOR:

We are putting together a S'more snack calendar countdown to our last Zoom meeting.  The calendar creates a pattern of pieces cracker, chocolate, marshmallow, cracker, and repeat.  Here is a fun song to the tune of ON TOP OF SPAGHETTI:

On top of my cracker
So yummy and sweet
I'll put on some chocolate
To make a good treat

Then comes the marshmallow
So sticky and soft
And then one more cracker
So it won't fall off

I put it together
So gently I press
If I squeeze it too hard
It will make a big mess

I'm ready to eat it
This thing called a S'more
Oh my it's so yummy
I think I'll have more!
