Spelling...Little Bit is still loving to spell her name! She loves to play a game called Dora's World Adventure. Most of the time she doesn't even get into the game, she just wants to type names in over and over at the beginning of the game! She is awesome at spelling her name, mom, dad and then she wants to wants help spelling a few of her friends names.

Vulture...vulture paper craft. Little Bit colored all the pieces of the vulture....her favorite color purple or violet!...and then I cut them out and she pieced it together and glued it on some construction paper. We named her Violet the Vulture!
Vegetables...I printed this chart so we could keep track of the veggies we at this week. Little Bit identified the veggies we ate and then said what color it was. She used that color to fill in the box on the coordinating day. Since we had corn on Monday, she used yellow to color in a box on that day.
...We did our own version of this shopping game. Little Bit gathered all the play veggies she had and we identified them and then had fun shopping for them.

Computer time...Starfall {we worked in the ABC section with the letter V}
...Little Bit also loves to get in some computer time when we go the library. They have computers set up in the children's area with games, stories, etc. She loves working on Jump Start PreK!
