Fun Class: U for Umbrella

It has been a long time since the last lesson for fun class. Chloe is not so enthusiastic about her fun classes now probably due to she has many other activities to do. When she's not on her fun class, she would be doing the exercises books I bought for her, in Chinese or English.

We started the lesson after singing Greeting Song.

We had a quick revision on the words and pictures that she learned in her first lesson on U, for which I showed her the pictures of objects spelled after letter U, and she would tell me the name of the objects. You may refer to the previous lesson for the pictures. If you would like to download all the pictures spelled after A - Z, click here.

We then listened to the phonics sound and song of letter U, which went like this:
Up and Under u, u, u.....
u is the sound of U!

She then traced the upper and lower case of letter U on the worksheets I printed from Starfall.com.

She wrote letter U in the boxes and matched the pictures to the words:

I forgotten to prompt her to spell "Umbrella", you may want to do it to enforce her phonics on the letters. For prompting skill, click here.

The craft work for this lesson is to paste the baking cup on the drawing paper as umbrella. You'll need about 2 baking cups, cut into half, a drawing paper, crayon and water colour.

Colour the drawing paper using a blue crayon (or any colour the kid likes) by rubbing it flat on the paper. Paste the half baking cups on the paper. Draw the "handle" of the umbrella. Finger print on the paper using water colour as rain drops.
Busy......

She's so happy that mummy let her dirty her finger...... She can only do this in her fun classes :)

Paste the cotton wool as cloud (optional):

We were busy washing our hands after the finger prints, and forgotten to sing the closing song :(
