October's theme is.. in the orchard
What do leaves have to do with the letter "A", you ask?
It has to do with fun!
We discussed what an orchid is and what grows there...
We then went on a leaf hunt around the neighborhood and collected fallen leaves.
And picked some right off of the trees.
Today, we talked about the letter "Aa" the sound it makes and what it looks like.
I then put all of the leaves in a container along with some paper apples with the letter "A a "on them.
My daughter went on a "finding the letter adventure in the leaves".
Every time she found an apple she would say the sound of the letter "A".
I was impressed that she sorted the leaves and the letters as she went along.
This is what leaves have to do with the letter"A"!
Of course, you can't talk about apples without eating one.
To expound our learning of the letter "A", we talked about words that start with the letter...
Big A, little a, what begins with A?
Apple
Airplane
Ant
Ambulance
Apricot
Annie
were a few things that we came up with.
We then read the book of the month-
Johnny

We also read the book
