  • In Movement with Lindsay we took turns playing the accordion, ­we practiced our yoga poses and had a fun dance party.
  • In Library with Lindsay, we read Bam and Kero’s Sunday, by Yuka Shimada.

Classroom Activities:
 
  • We each decorated the first letter of our name using pom poms and sequins.
  • We created a silly Zebra, by decorating the letter ‘Z’ and adding fun colorful eyes.
  • We used different color pieces of foam to collage a letter of the alphabet.
  • We enjoyed playing with alphabet magnets and making the sound of each letter.
 
Highlight:  We enjoyed working on the alphabet train puzzle together as a class.
