January Week 2 .... (to be updated)

working on our 'letter book'- coloring the letter T, letting him choose his OWN color by identifying the color before using it first....

started working on putting things in 'LINES' this morning...
and by this afternoon after mommy made a line with blocks, Reid made one for his trucks to ride on too!

21 months

paint with water

color matching- placing a train of a certain color on the matching color mat
no pictures from today- bummer, but i'll list what we did:

starting with T and then spread them all out on the floor and let him identify them and place them on the board when he id'd them correctly! he got so excited when finding a letter that he knew and eventually made it all the way through the alphabet. He also learned more about 'magnetism' which he found very interesting....

printed out a big T and little T coloring sheet...
he was having difficulty differentiating between T and I so i wanted to focus on that a little bit.

Color Stacking and Nesting....
two of each color, practicing identifying similar color families (ex: dark purple vs light purple) and grouping them by color

  3. I love your color matching, too. We do the same thing with small cars on a file folder, but I like the bigger scale of yours. Fun!
