Chick Project, Day 18

Today we are celebrating a friend's birthday.  We will sing and put our special birthday drawings up at our Zoom meeting.  A perfect way to celebrate Fun Friday!
  
STORY TIME


Have you ever made pizza from scratch?



Have you every been an interrupting chicken?


LETTER of the WEEK :  Uu




Start at the top of the paper with your marker.  Make a straight long line down, make a small curve and continue with a straight long line up.    Color in a bubble letter U.  Sculpt it in the dirt outside, in salt or sand on a plate, shape it in dough.  For a fun new dough mix UP 1/2 cup hair conditioner to 1 cup of cornstarch.  For a smaller amount, try half that amount.

Our question of the Day was, "Do you have an uncle?"  Everyone answered YES!  We all have an uncle!

 MATH

The Shape of the Month is an Oval.

The Number of the Month is 10.

We have 10 fingers on our bodies.  What else do we have 10 of on our bodies?

Color in or put an X through the Egg Number 18 on your Countdown to Hatch Day Calendar.  Using your pointer finger, touch and count each egg on your calendar and count.  How many days left before Hatch Day? We are so close!

Find a ruler or measuring tool in your house.  Look for the number 10 for 10 inches.  Find something at your house that is 10 inches long.

Do you have a measuring cup that measures ounces?  Can you find the line that is 10 ounces?  Can you fill the measuring cup to 10 ounces?

Do you have a book in your house that has page numbers on it?  Go to page number 10.  What is on that page?

SCIENCE




Another science experiment that demonstrates how a large cactus plant survives in the desert by holding water.  Take a paper towel and lay it on a tray.  On another tray place a paper towel that has been folded like a fan.  A cactus plant has fold-like structure and is very thick.  If you have a water spray bottle, spray both towels until wet (spray bottles are great for fine motor strengthening).  Put the trays in a sunny spot.  Guess which one will dray first?  Wait and see what happens.

CREATIVE ART

Make some sandy desert sand art.  Will you fill a bottle with sand and treasures?  Or Use glue on a piece of paper and sprinkle some sand on it to make a desert?

MUSIC or MOTOR:

Our favorite fun pizza song with some french lyrics in the middle! Parle Francais!










The Chicken Family Song:

Down in the barnyard early in the morning
See the chicken family all in a row
See the Daddy Chicken
He is called a Rooster
Cock-a-doodle Doo and off he goes!

Down in the barnyard early in the morning
See the chicken family all in a row
See the Mommy Chicken
She is called a Hen
Cluck, Cluck, Cluck and off she goes!

Down in the barnyard early in the morning
See the chicken family all in a row
See the Baby Chickens, they are called Chicks
Peep, Peep, Peep and off they go!

On the inside of the Egg
Out pops a wing
Out pops a leg
How does the chick know how to get out
When it has never been out and about!

BONUS MATERIAL


UP and UNDER, two fun U words.  Play a memory game by placing 10 items on a tray UNDER  fun cloth like a silky scarf or fun blanket.  Point and name each item before covering the items.  Have your child blind their eyes or look away (no peeking!) while you remove one of the items.  See if they can name the item missing.  Maybe you could find 10 U items (underwear, uniform, umbrella, toy unicorn, picture of an uncle, United States map, picture of the planet Uranus, U turn sign, Up arrow, cooking utensil, user manual, sea urchin, uppercase letter).
