Treasure Island! Day 2: "Boat"

The topic of the day was "Boats" and our question of the day was...
"What kind of things float on water?"

We sang "Row Your Boat" and practiced clapping once for each word. Then we talked about rhyming words, like...
"What rhymes with 'stream'?"
We also talked about where else boats go and replaced the word stream with other options, like 'river', etc.

On the theme poster, the kids took turns identifying pictures from magnifying glasses on the poster and counting the number of that item, for example... trees, crabs, etc.

Our art project of the day was a boat that we filled with matching cards that the kids can play with and use at home...

Last, I want to share with you the "More Reading and Writing" and "More Math" workbooks that were sent to me as an opportunity to sample. These books are aimed for kids aged 5-6 years old. There is 1 page to do per day, and you can see a sample below...

... You can purchase either or both books, if you think your child would benefit from added learning at a higher level. Each book is $3.99 plus tax and must be purchased at the time I order the new month's curriculum. I typically order mid month, so if you are interested, please me know before the 20th.
