I have not been very consistent with tot school recently. I really don't think we ever will be again, but I am not completely giving up. We do what we can and I take pictures when I remember. Sawyer is almost 4 and really enjoys more preschool type learning. I am trying to follow Jax's lead as far as tot school is concerned and many times he just wants to play with his trains and cars.
The boys made these fluffy polar bears when we talked about animals who live in cold climates.
Jax is getting more interested in puzzles lately. With this one I give him the letters and then he puts them into the right spots. Sawyer of course can do it without any help.
I bought this first book of tracing several months ago, but Sawyer wasn't really interested. Lately, he has been wanting to try to trace and write. He really liked these mazes.
The boys have been painting with water colors a lot. Jax LOVES to paint. I wrote a "secret message" and had them paint it to see what is said. You can't really read it, but it said "Mommy loves Jax and Sawyer."
I printed out and laminated a few of these file folder games. Sawyer really liked them and Jax liked watching his big brother. Sawyer is such a good teacher to his little brother. In this picture he was telling him the letter names and helping him match the upper and lower case letters.
Jax made play-doh "cupcakes".
I filled a tub of water and let Jax transfer the water to another bucket with cups and sponges. This was his favorite activity of the week. Sawyer liked it too.
I bought these Sesame Street mats at Wal-Mart a while ago. We have 4 different ones: shapes, colors, alphabets, and numbers. Sawyer practiced tracing the letters. They were only about $1.00 each ad we have used them a ton.
I made this Valentine sensory tub for my three year old class. My boys played with it quite a bit last week.
We talked about H for hearts and painted with cookie cutters.
For the last two weeks we have been learning about what the Bible has to say about love. We have read a little bit of 1 Corinthians 13 each day. I found this on totally tots. I also made a bulletin board using these in my classroom. I printed out the hearts and had my students make valentines. In the center of each Valentine I let them glue on one of the printed hearts. In the center of the bulletin board I put the 1 Corinthians 13 poster and the word Love. It looks really cute and I have been referring to it all month to teach the children about love.
We also got a special treat last week. Snow!!!! This is the most snow my boys have ever seen. They had fun playing in it and were sad to see it melt away.
This is actually our neighbors snowman. Ours was knocked down by an excited little boy before we could take a picture.
