This week focuses on the letter N, & the kings Joash, Hezekiah, Josiah, & Job.
We started off Monday with a new fingerplay. We read in the Bible about Joash. Lil J practiced writing "N" & "n". He did 'count on me', drawing pillars in each box & counting each box & then all pillars. He read a Bob book. We did Spanish & then we colored a coloring sheet about Joash. Then we did our songs--a song about Israel & our usual 3. Later there will be reading aloud, from Christmas books & also from the Bible.
On Tuesday we continued with our fingerplay. We read about & discussed Hezekiah. Lil J did "hide & seek N". He read a Bob book. We did Spanish & our songs--a song about Israel turning back to God & our usual 3. Later I will read aloud from Christmas books as well as the Bible at bedtime.
On Wednesday we continued with our fingerplay. We read about Josiah in the Bible. He read a Bob book. We did both devotionals for the letter N. On a piece of paper I demonstrated what he needed to do--eyes, Bible, & smiley face--representing Josiah's eyes, the Bible, & Josiah's smile. It was masking tape "N" day, which my son loves--he had his monster trucks drive on the N today. We did Spanish & colored a picture of Josiah & did our songs--a song about Israel turning back to God & then our usual 3 songs. Later I will read aloud from our Christmas books & also from Luke in the Bible at bedtime.
On Thursday we finished off the week with our fingerplay, combining days 4 & 5. We read about God's people turning away from God, marrying women who didn't believe in God. And we read about Job. We did a lot of discussing of what we read, there were a couple of activities that I skipped here. He painted the letter "N" & wrote "N" & "n". He read a Bob book, did Spanish, & did our songs--a song about Israel turning away from God & our usual 3 songs.

Good week! You back at school for the new year yet? My son is into "monster trucking" over taped letter day as well :)
Hi Laura! We started back on December 30th. My husband doesn't get New Year's Eve or New Year's Day off from work, so we just did school on those days, didn't feel like we needed to take that week off. I've just been needing a break from the internet recently & that has included my blog. Hopefully I'll get back to the blogging soon. Until then.......
