Fun Class - K for Kangaroo

Chloe was very excited when I accepted her request to have Fun Class (yes, she's always the one initiates it and not me). She happily sang the Greeting Song and even a few versions in "Good afternoon", "Good evening" and a "Happy Birthday" song (don't ask me why did she sing this song......).

This was the second lesson for letter "K", we listened to the phonics song once again:
"Kings and Kangaroos, k, k, k.... k is the sound of K!"
(If you are not familiar with the phonics sound of A-Z, you may click here)

In the first lesson on letter "K", she traced the letter and pasted the pictures of object spelled after "K". In this lesson, she labeled the pictures. She would spell and read the words before pasting them on the pictures.


I prompted her to spell the word "Kangaroo".


She spelled the word in this video:

I managed to record a complete video on prompting in the lesson of "L for Leaf", click here to view.

The craft work was a rocking kangaroo by using the paper plate, she coloured the kangaroo before pasting it on the half folded paper plate.


The finished product looked like this:


We dance with the closing song of "The Animals went in Two by Two". The melody was the same as the "The ants go marching", we had fun marching around the study room.

She gave me a hug to end the lesson.
