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 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!
