S for Snow

April 3, 2010 by Ami 6 Comments

If you are new to Read to Me & ABC, please start here.

Read to Me

Simon winging a snow angel.

Our book of the week was Snowy Day by Jack Ezra Keats.  

Alphabet Art- Shiny Silver S

Supplies
S Pattern
Aluminum Foil

Cut squares of foil out and let your preschooler glue them to the S to make it super, shiny, and silver! 

Lessons & Lapbook

I used the lapbook printables from Homeschool Share.  

Let's Make a Memory

We did three different things for this week's Let's Make a Memory.

1. Shaving Cream Snow
shaving cream + one table + no shirt = one happy kid! Add cars or combs or other fun things, if desired.

2. Painting Snow
snow + tempera paint = fun!

3. Spraying Snow
I filled Simon's spray bottle with some water and food coloring.  He loved this and brought me his spray bottle every time he went out to play in the snow.

    Hi, I just ran across your blog and I must say I am so glad God lead me here, I love love love this read to me & abc. I am printing off some of the items to start with my prek/k son — hoping this will help. Could you possibly tell me if there is a more organized way to learn about this method? or is it just from the homeschool share link you provide? Thanks so much!! Kayla
