What are We Learning
Literacy
We will review the letters K and L and have a letter review. We will find the letter K and put them in our Kangaroo pouch and play “Pass the Letter Bag.” The children will put letters in order with Christmas lights and write a letter to Santa.
Math
The children will match kites to numbers and make a ladybug number line. We will also count with Santa’s Roll and Count and make fingerprint patterns to make a candy cane.
Physical
For fine motor, we will unlock locks with keys, make key rubbings, and write with candy canes. For gross motor, the children will do a Kangaroo hop, Reindeer Boot Camp, and toss jingle bells.
Science
We will make key impressions in play dough and play with Christmas tree slime. We will also experiment with peppermint.
Social/Emotional
The children will play “Where are the Kings” while trying to find the letter K in a deck of cards. We will also go on a Candy Cane hunt and play memory with “silver bells.”
