to teach at a time).

you how many items there are. Help them count the objects if you need to.
Monday (Language Arts Emphasis):
·
Give the child a tracing or coloring page for
the letter F. You can find books of these at the dollar store or Target. There
are also many resources online. If you don’t have a tracing/coloring page for
them. Just draw the letter F (upper and lower case) and help them trace it or
draw it on their own.

·
Read the child a book that has a lot of the
letter F in it. I always just go to my local library’s website and search for
children’s books that have titles starting with the letter F. Or I search for
books about the theme words. Any F book will do.

Examples of books to use:

The
Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister

Book by Dr. Seuss

Ask the child to find the letter F in the title
and say the word with them, emphasizing the sound the letter makes in the word.

Teach child the meaning of the word “fraction.”
Do this by writing out a fraction like ½ or 1/3 and then dividing something
like a piece of paper or slice of bread into halves or thirds. Explain that “1/2”
means half of something and that it is a fraction.
o
Optional: Ask child to divide something in
halves or thirds for you and explain that these are fractions of the original
piece.

in the Dell”).
