F-Frog Plan

We have been WAITING for this unit!! Just because "Frog and Toad" books are our very very favorites. They are the books that "taught" my son to read and spell. SERIOUSLY. I'll have to write a post JUST on these two FUNNY amphibians.

Anyhows, because of that I've decided to put up THEIR pictures instead of the real frogs (they look so much cuter anyways).

For our unit, here's the plan

*Lots of frog and toad stuff (reading and videos)
*Frog Lapbook (get ideas here) and a pop up card here
-Difference between frog and toad
*Caterpillar and polliwog video
*Easy paper frog craft for the preschooler
*Origami
*Play leapfrog

Some fun online games
*Frogmania (eating dragonflies)
*madlibs (if your K'ner can write this will be so fun)
*tic tac toe

Snacks/food
*Cookies
*Frog egg pops
*Frog bread (OH MY GOODNESS, this is SOOOO cute. My hubby said "This is getting out of hand")
*Frog fruit

Online Resources: Sesame Street Games

I love the Sesame Street Games ...I think they are the best for preschoolers. They teach important concepts, at the same time, making computer skills real easy. For eg, there is no "click and drag"...that's hard for them...there's "click" "move" "click". There are some games Ian really likes...(click on photo for the games) That's the Wheels on the Bus song (you press the keys foe interactive movements) Patterns. Seasons. Fun for the kids. Walking the dogs...numbers. This is alltime favorite. First you make a pitcher of lemonade. Then depending on how many monsters come, you click however many cups. I love it!

Science 2015/2016: Human Body Recap

We really had fun learning about the Human Body this year. I thought it would be meaningful to consolidate our learning. We enjoyed the Body Book more than I thought we would. I did do most of the cutting though. We also enjoyed the different videos we watched and the experiments. I think this is the most successful science year yet. The five senses Tongue the Ear The Skin The Eye Skeleton Joints Long Bone Tooth Brains Spinal Cord Digestive System Stomach The Lungs The Heart The Urinary System The Muscle Look through all our experiments and videos here .
