Letter of the week – U

This week, we focused solely on U is for umbrella. Molly made a letter U and added raindrops with an eye dropper. She loved dropping water with the dropper so much that she asked to keep using it on another piece of paper.

For our stART project, we read The Umbrella Queen. It's about a little girl whose village is known for their hand-painted butterfly and flower umbrellas and are anticipating the arrival of the King to name the umbrella queen.

Molly made a paper umbrella with butterflies and flowers, just like the book!

She walked around all day under her umbellla, hiding from the rain.

I wanted Molly to practice patterns again, so I made her these umbrella patterns. (You can download them here.)

She is getting better at her counting and matching. (These were part of the number flip book at Home Grown Hearts.)
