Kindergarten, Writing, Week 5

This week we practiced writing all our capital letters.

For Small Muscle Development:

• Tuesday K. made a Color Collage. She picked the color orange and looked through magazines for orange items, cut them out, and glued them on a sheet of paper.
• Friday K. finger painted.

For Writing Development:

• Wednesday we played "Catch My Silly". (see Games for Writing by Peggy Kaye)
• You play this game by telling a story that has errors in it. The child tries to catch the errors. For instance, Billy put on his shoes then his socks. It works best for me if I write out my story ahead of time. The story doesn't need to be long, just a paragraph or two. If you can't think of something use The Three Bears for a starter.
