Faith has decided to study the letter "T" this week.

Writing, Reading, Art
We made a "T" poster. Took turns thinking of and writing words that start with "t" including "th" words. Faith then illustrated the words. We hung the poster on the refrigerator.

Math (Time)
This week we will be learning about time and telling time. We sat down with a chalkboard and I asked Faith to help me think of some ways people talk about time. We came up with words like "minute" and "year" and "tomorrow".
Then I drew a clock on the chalkboard and we discussed what it represents, how many seconds are in a minute, how many minutes are in an hour and so forth.
I drew hands on the clock and had Faith tell me what "o'clock" it was. (She was already knowlegeable with hours.) Then I taught her how to count the numbers by fives and she practiced telling time that way.

Worksheet: Look at each clock and write what hour it is. (4:00)

Reading, Bible Study
Faith read It's Not Easy Being a Bunny, by Sadler.
Read "A Bug's Life" from Disney Beloved Tales.
Read "Asa Follows God (1 Kings 15:9-15; 2 Chronicles 14-15)" and "Trouble Between Israel and Judah (1 Kings 15:16-24; 2 Chronicles 16)" from Egermeier's Bible Story Book.
