May 15 to May 29, 2011
Mavi is 32-33 months old.
Our study of planets and the solar system.
I borrowed a book from the library and showed it to Mavi. The only thing he was interested of course was the sun and the moon. But when I told him about our mother Earth, and showed him videos related to planets... he was hooked.
Here’s a few things we did for our solar system theme:
- coloring. I’m happy that he enjoys coloring because he doesn’t like this activity before.
This is what he accomplished so far. I did Uranus and Neptune :)
He asked for another “planet paper” and colored the second set. I made him cut each of the planets. To do this, I made a line to guide him where to cut exactly.
Then we paste the planets in our universe. Sorry, I ran out of black construction paper, so I just used our drawing paper.
LANGUAGE
We did object box for letters : ra and bi
We did our pink series: matching game
- re-enforcement exercise of our object box pink series 1
- currently mastering this picture card from our pink series 1. It’s simple as matching the words to the pictures in the card. I would first point the picture and ask Mavi to name it, and we would read the words on the card pronouncing each letters to form a word. This helps him to easily associate words with objects. I’m glad to say that he can already read these 6 words.
MATH
I’ve been ignoring math lately, as Montessori believes that math should come later. But I can’t help but share this fun activity for Mavi which he loves dearly. This is to connect numbers so he can form shapes. He keeps asking me to write numbers and loves to connect them in order. Now I must say he has mastered ordering his numbers from 1 to 10!
