Letter I

Letter I: Monday, McCall made an island out of the uppercase I. I cut out the I and then McCall cut out the leaves and water, and I helped a little with the leaves of the palm tree. She added a sun, some fish, and coconuts to her final product.

Then, Tuesday we talked about igloos and what they were. Then she created on with marshmallows and toothpicks. She had fun with this one and got to enjoy eating some of the marshmallows.

Wednesday was an insect day. She used her fingers and dipped them in stamp ink. Then she looked at a picture and added legs and eyes to the different circles to create lots of different insects. 

Thursday, we did some fun ice activities. First, I put a whole bunch of ice in a pan and then I let her paint them with watercolors.

Then I put some ice in a bowl and water in a bowl along with some insects to play with. I gave her tongs and a spoon and just let her use her imagination and play. It kept her entertained for quite a while.

Friday, we made some puffy paint and then she created an ice cream cone.

On Saturday, we finished up the eat, and made some homemade ice cream. McCall and Baylor wanted to make some, so they mixed their ingredients in a small bag. Then we put them in a larger bag with lots of ice and squished them around. It was taking longer than we wanted so we ended up putting the bags in the freezer.

Later in the day, they got to enjoy their delicious ice cream!
