Letter P and Numbers (0-10)


Daily Question:  Can you count from 0-12?

Parents, you can see how we are coming along with our name practice.  Please work at home on this!

Toys: (So many begin with the letter P) Polly Pockets, Littlest Pet Shops, Pirates, Puppets/Puppet Theater, Puzzles, Play Doh, Play House, etc.



























 


Letter P Activity: We talked about P the Pelican who popped popcorn "p-p-p" and picked up pop for his pals. We listened to  popcorn popping and repeated "p-p-p." Then we enjoyed eating copious amounts of the fluffy stuff while trying to glue it to an uppercase and lowercase P.



We had fun watching our popcorn popping and saying, "pah, pah" for letter P.


  

 Our Counting Jars:  We have begun a new activity involving exploring numbers and our "Counting Jars."  We will be exploring numbers 0-12 and today we began with "zero--our hero."  This also helps us practice our name and also early writing skills here at school

Piggie Under the Blanket Game:
