Monday we
learned about listening to the air.
Our first
activity for the day was called Bird Sounds. We took our little postcard that
Mother Goose Time provided us and I helped Miss M draw her little handprint on
it. Then we turned it into a bird. I asked her what sound a bird makes and she
said “Tweet!” so we wrote that on our postcard too. Then we took turns holding
the postcard and making bird sounds.
Our next
activity we tried doing was Thunder Patterns. For this activity, we were given
a little cube and I tried getting Miss M to roll the cube and then make the
sound of whatever picture it landed on.
After
Thunder Patters, we did another activity called Wind Lab. I put some water in a
cup with a lid and straw. I encouraged Miss M to come over and blow bubbles in
the cup. I explained that we can use air to make sounds. We blow into certain
instruments and we can make bubble sounds too. We tried blowing bubbles softly
and then strongly. Miss M wasn’t really able to blow bubbles into the cup even
though she was trying.
Our last
activity for the day was listening to bird calls. We listened to some recorded
bird calls online and then I tried to get Miss M to mimic some of the sounds.
The best she could do was say “tweet” and that was great. She really enjoyed
listening to the bird calls and watching videos online. Plus it was kinda funny
because our kitties were freaking out from the bird sounds and kept trying to
figure out where they were coming from ;)
Our book
that we read today was called Mouse’s First Spring.
