B was such a fun week and we still couldn’t do all the b words! Have fun with your own B week!

THIS WEEK WE ARE LEARNING ABOUT THE…

Letter: B

Color: brown

Shape: semi-circle

Number: 2

ACTIVITIES

Craft Time

Letter B for brown bear (Prep: cut out all pieces of construction paper (back paper is 4.5″ x 6″, you can click on the template below to save and print. Make an example for them to follow. Place all pieces in a sandwich ziploc bag so they can open and assemble with some glue, google eyes and a black marker. The ears have semi-circles to point out and a circle from last week.) **My three year old put his marker down and the nearly 1 year old decided to add his own artwork on the side and bottom before I caught it.

Binoculars (Prep: have toilet paper rolls, string, hole punch, construction paper, scissors and tape. I let the kids pick their paper and string colors and I had some fun scissors to practice cutting skills. They helped with taping, punching holes and threading the string. They’ll need the binoculars for story time too!)
