Lesson 2

Elinore did another fabulous job completing lesson 2 of Calvert Pre-K.We did a good job on Opening, although we need a flag for the salute. For News, Elinore didn't do as well as yesterday. Even though I asked questions to elicit conversation, she was pretty quiet. Maybe this had to do with her boo-boo: Penny scratched her.

Discussion was about the color red, which she recognized better than I expected. Number Readiness studied before and after, which I don't think she quite got.

We read Little Red Hen and acted it out. She listened to the story just fine, but she was not interested in acting it out. We made some of the items out of play-dough such as eggs, the cake, logs for heating the oven, and the hen. These covered Stories, Things to Do, and Games.

Elinore used Starfall.com for the calendar portion and played with the letters H, W, C, and G.

I discovered that it's very difficult to take pictures of the action when Elinore needs so much direct intervention. I am really excited that she's doing such a great job, but tomorrow we start left and right.
