Letter "Q"

Theme: Letter "Q"

Choosing Time: Search for the Queen's Treasure, Decorate a "Quilt" Block, & Little People Village

Snack: Thank you Jackson for the tasty cheese sticks! It was the BEST cheese stick I've ever eaten. Yum!

Music & Movement: The Jumping Song, Move Quietly & Quickly, & Move Like Q (Wave like a queen, throw a ball like a quarterback, Run quickly, quack like a duck, & tiptoe quietly.)

Lesson: Letter "Q" makes a funny sound. It is always "married" to the letter "U." Letter "U" does not need to always be with Q though. We posted our "Quilt" Blocks on our class bulletin board. We call it our friendship quilt. We looked at a quilt and counted all of the many different colors are on it. We noticed that a quilt can be made from many different shapes and colors. We looked at different kinds of quilt designs. Each quilt is a work of art.

Books: We sat on a quilt to read Farmer Duck by Martin Waddell & The Quiltmaker's Journey by Jeff Brumbeau

Art & Writing: A Letter "Q" Collage with quarters, quilt squares, q-tips, & question marks.
