School Time: Week 8 (Ss concluded)

It was nice to be feeling better this week.  Thank you to everyone for their kind comments regarding our getting better.  This week we finished our letter Ss lessons.  I just realized I neglected to work on the sign language this week.  Ooops.  Our words were the same as last week:
 slide, skunk, sandwich, snake, socks and seal
We had three days of actual lesson time.

Of course, our muffin tin had NOTHING to do with the letter Ss.  The theme this week was Halloween, but we chose (okay I chose) to do pumpkins because we don't celebrate Halloween.  We had a great time; the girls helped make the soup and the cookies.  You can check out our Muffin Tin Monday post for more details.  This took up most of our time on Monday.  We actually had our lesson time while the cookies baked.

We spent some time focusing on our tactile letter activities

 And made our tactile s out of sunflower seeds

Then I asked Tabitha if she could form an S out of the seeds without an outline.  She wasn't sure what to do until I formed one in my spot on the table.  Then she got the idea.

And we worked on our worksheets (they are in a sheet protector so we can re-use it with the dry erase markers).

Of course we did two different projects related to two books we were reading.

We made a squirrel after reading The Busy Little Squirrel by Nancy Tarfuri

And a sand castle after reading Sand Castle by Brenda Shannon Yee.

Our final Ss activity was our salt art, which we worked on today.

They look like Christmas presents to me.

During the week Tabitha had some special time "reading."  First to Hannah:

She was reading Super Sand Castle Saturday by Stuart J. Murphy

Then she read her Bob book the way Steve reads the books in Blue's Clues (or the way mommy does if it is a big book, but she wanted to be like Steve).

One of the only activities that was used off of our shelves this week was the dry pouring.
