Tillery Tot School- Letter L

Last week we learned about the letter "L"! We focused on lions, leaves, and ladybugs mostly. Here's a look at our Tot School board:
I have a few books about ladybugs so we read plenty of those.
Seth liked The Grouchy Ladybug by Eric Carle.
We made ladybugs using construction paper.
We made a lion using a paper plate, some construction paper, and noodles.
I made a special lunch for Seth.
He seems to eat a lot better when his food is made into
something related to what we are learning about.
His first glance at his lion sandwich was so humorous to me.
I am not too sure he knew what it was at first.
But he did eat really well after we talked about it being a lion.
I found these number window clings at Mighty Dollar recently.
So we practiced our counting using them on the front door.
We played in the leaves.
Then we brought a few inside to hang on our board and to also use for some leaf rubbings.
We also made lobsters by tracing our hands and one foot.
The hands are the claws and the foot is the body.
(I would have also liked to have watched The Lion King,
but we just couldn't find a copy and we weren't willing to pay $24.99 for it.
So hopefully we can watch it as soon as we can borrow it or get a cheaper copy.)

This week we are learning about the letter "R"!
