Fun Class: W for Whale

My 2 years old joined in for this lesson too. It was hard to control the lesson, but generally both the kids enjoyed it.

Didi: Yeh! Fun class!

Chloe sang the greeting song to start the lesson. Didi found it fun and sang along. Both my kids like singing and dancing.

We had a revision of the objects spelled after letter W. I showed Didi the pictures done in the previous lesson, and he was able to name the objects. If you would like to download all the pictures spelled after A - Z, click here.

We listened to the phonics sound and song of letter W, which went like this:
Worms are Wiggling, w, w, w.....
w is the sound of W! 

Chloe was singing the nursery rhyme, while didi was scribbling here and there:

 I printed few more activities worksheets of letter W for her. She could complete those worksheets pretty fast. I would normally let her practise writing the letter first:

 

Let her join the words begin with W:

Let her write the missing letter:

While Chloe was doing her worksheets, I let didi colour the worksheets which Chloe had completed.

I prompted her to spell the word "whale". For technique on prompting, you may refer here

 

I had modified the craft work for this lesson. We cut some colourful papers in the shape of whale and pasted them inside a plastic container. She drew some 'waves' inside the container. You can do the craft with your kid by using any materials that you can find from home, I'm sure you've many containers in your kitchen cabinets :)

Her finished product:

The closing song for this lesson: Whale Sneezes
