H's and V's

I worked with Nathan on some letters recently - we took a little break for the summer - it's a good thing I decided to work with him, because he regressed a bit. 




We traced his foot and cut it out to use as the horse's head



We cut out the ears and neck


Glued on some wiggle eyes


And yarn for the mane and drew a nose with a brown marker




found the template for the vulture at dltk (I think?) wrap a toilet paper roll with the black paper


Then glue on the pieces of the vulture


We also did some book work re-learning shapes and colors.

I love the foot for the head! What a cute way to make it his own. I fear my DD's are falling behind a little too. Guess We should get on that ;)

Popping in from Tag-Along Tuesday! You remind me that I need to check on my 5 year old's retention of her letters before I send her off to Kindergarten in about 10 days. Please stop by and see me; we have a lot in common, even though I only have two girls!
