Last week was a good week. We continued working on our scripture from the past couple of weeks about not being afraid. We were a bit more relaxed with our learning time this week, but learning took place nonetheless. We also enjoyed a surprise visit from Grammy, too. How fun is that!
Thanks to my parents, we have gotten a bit of items from a former day care building they are transforming into their new church building. The former owners left everything behind. One of the items we used this week are these wonderful write on, wipe off letter boards. I got these mostly for K at this point, but got two because I knew G would want to work on them as well. K has enjoyed working on the letter board, and his writing is progressing. We are continuing to work using the lines as our guide; that's definitely a work in progress =).

We also received this wonderful letter mat. We have used it to work on letter sounds and beginning word sounds for G, and beginning sounds, vowel sounds in cvc words, and ending sounds with K. The kids really like this because they get to move around going from letter to letter. M also enjoys this mat, he is learning his letter sounds (with a great deal of reinforcement from his teacheres K and G), and he will go to the letters, try to pull them out and make the appropriate sound for the letter.
We were glad to spend some time outside and had some fun with sidewalk chalk (new chalk also provided by my parents). G worked on some of her sight words while we were out there, and K worked on his writing. M likes to draw with the chalk as well, and now, we have a lot less eating of the chalk, something for which I am grateful.

We enjoyed some fun at the park and reading as well. All in all, a wonderful week!
