Vocab Builders



Here are four Halloween books that we enjoyed this weekend.
Corduroy's Trick or Treat, Haunted House, Boo Who?, and Happy Halloween- Picture Me.
We worked on making words with letters t, a, p, s, n.  I drew three rectangles for Olive to place the letters.

 To help build on the story words that we are learning with Wordly Wise K, Olive matched the vocab words with the pictures.  I also had her point to the word I said and then pick the correct photo.

We are currently reading Little House in the Big Woods, by Wilder. When we come to a word that she questions, we write it down on an index card, and add it to our "word box." We review these words weekly by learning definitions and using them in a sentence.

  1. Looks like a very busy Monday at home school. Hope Olive loves the "Little House" books as much as I did. Love, Carolyn

I love your comments; they make my day, especially when you find an old sippy cup under the bed!
