Alphabet Book & Journal!

       At the end of every week (or in this case the beginning...) we will create a page in an alphabet book, as well as write whatever they want in their journal they picked out. I took 27 pieces of construction paper and punched holes and tied them together with yarn to make books and labeled the outside of them. Of course the first page in the book would be letter A, so we searched through old magazines and found upper and lowercase A's as well as A words and pictures of things that start with the letter A! The cut everything out themselves and glued it into the books as well! It was slow going at first, but they got the hang of it and did a great job! Then we moved on to their journals. Wyatt has the Avengers and Wade has the Spideman, so they got them from their backpacks and we got started. I just told them to write whatever they felt like writing, if possible if they could remember something they did from the week. Wade decided to write letters, and Wyatt drew a picture of an earth, sun, moon and letter A. :-) They both really liked doing it, so we're looking forward to doing letter B next!
