The girls had fun learning about kites today. They flying a kite outside and painting as always. We got our recourses for today from the K is for Kangaroo, Koala, & Kite Teachers Pay Teachers pack.
Kite Learning
- We learned more about how a kite works with this video.
- She did her Kite page from her Abeka Letters & Sounds for 3’s book.
- We reviewed all of the sounds we have learned so far with the Abeka Alphabet Flashcards.
Kite Writing
- The girls each had a similar writing paper for the letter K. My 3 year old had a capital K and lowercase k with tracing arrows, along with a kite to color. The 5 year old had the same paper, but added a short poem and more tracing K’s and k’s on the bottom. I found both of these in the K is for Kangaroo, Koala, & Kite Teachers Pay Teachers pack.
K is for Kite Craft
- I printed this K is for Kite Craft onto cardstock for the girls to paint. I cut out the capital “K” for them to paint blue. After that dried they glued it to a piece of blue construction paper. Then they used their dot daubers to decorate their kites before they glued them on. I cut out the clouds for them to glue on.
Kite Counting
- I printed out the Kite Counting Bows game and then cut the pieces and laminated them. She told me the number on the kite and then added the bows to the kite’s string.
Kite Names
- The girls use the Kite Names paper to practice making their names.
Six Kites
- The girls each had a similar number 6 paper for counting kites. My 3 year old had the number 6 with tracing arrows, along with a helpful poem, and 6 kites to color. The 5 year old had the same paper, but added more tracing 6’s on the bottom. I found both of these in the K is for Kangaroo, Koala, & Kite Teachers Pay Teachers pack.
Kite Shape Puzzles
- I printed out the Kite Shape Matching game and then cut the pieces and laminated them. Then the girls took turns making a match as they told me the color and shape that was on the kite.
Kite Worksheets
- We did the I Spy the Letter K or k with a dot dauber.
- Then they did the Trace and Match the kite colors page. We reviewed each color and how to spell them before they traced the letters and matched them to the kites.
My “k” Book
I read the My “k” Book by Jane Belk Moncure to the girls too. Little k finds kites to fly.
Kite Flying
- The girls were glad to have enough wind to fly their kites today.
