I kind of changed the way we do tot school this month. Instead of 3 or 4 activities she does every day, I'm choosing around 6 that she does once per week, unless of course she requests to do the activity again. It's working better for us. We tend to do tot school 3 days per week, 2 activities per day. Ish. We're pretty flexible, and it's working for us so far. :) Sorry for the crappy phone pictures too, my DSLR is currently having issues.
Literacy - Dear Zoo Storytelling Basket
Maddie isn't quite old enough to understand a storytelling basket, but she loved this! Each page of the book, after we read it, I would ask Maddie to find that animal. She was correct about 90% of the time! I was impressed! This became her FAVORITE book this week. We read it over and over and over and over again.
Art - Animal Footprints
My child loves anything to do with paint, so this was a definite hit! I gathered some different zoo animals and showed her how to put paint on their feet and stamp it onto the paper. She ended up just finger painting by the end. :)
Fine Motor - Playdough Zoo
This was another big hit! Maddie doesn't quite have the motor skills to put the craft sticks back into the playdough, but we're working on those skills. :) She really enjoyed pretending the animals were in the zoo and taking them out and putting them back in.
Art - Finger Painting
We ended up finger painting again because she just loves it so much. :)
Literacy - Reading Books
We read TONS of zoo related books this week! We have lots of them and Maddie is starting to really enjoy being read to these days.
