10 Little Rubber Ducks

Bo Curriculum Year 3- September Week 2
10 Little Rubber Ducks by Eric Carle

We had lots of fun with ducks this week and continued learning about author and illustrator Eric Carle.

We used feathers to paint duck pictures.
We made tissue paper ducks.
Painted duck feet
And painted our feet- Caleb and Hannah loved this and laughed so hard while I painted their feet.
Our duck puppet- Little Quack- joined us for all of our activities this week. Little Quack books were our FAVORITES this week for sure.

McRuffy Phonics- Kindergarten
Thankfully the pace is picking up a little bit with phonics work. The first reader for this curriculum was introduced this week. Even though Caleb found it EXTREMELY easy, it was fun to have more to work with. We worked on story comprehension, retelling, and predicting.

McRuffy Math- First Grade

Caleb worked on place value, simple addition, number words, counting to 200 and recognizing numbers to 200, tangrams, time to the half hour, and counting by fives (nickels).



Our Bible verse this week was Phillipians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
They colored, cut out, and glued a strong guy with the Bible verse.
Hannah worked on writing the letter I.
Hannah cut out her key word cards.
Hannah and I played Lucky Ducks several times this week- Caleb played a few times too.
McRuffy Science- Kindergarten

We learned about magnets this week. Caleb and Hannah sorted objects by magnetic and not magnetic. We talked about north and south poles on magnets. We read about magnets in our Usbourne Children's Encyclopedia, and did a few online experiments.


Other Fun Stuff
On Friday night we went to a Sunday School Fellowship and had so much fun playing with friends, fishing, riding 4-wheelers and Caleb even got to take a ride on a tractor.

  2. The duck crafts turned out adorable! I forgot about the Lucky Ducks game. It goes perfectly with that book.
