Letter of the Week – Letter O
Day 1
- Find o stickers and put on O
- Color and assemble Letter O Book
- Go to library and get o books
- Play around with oil pastels on a paper
- Put out O words (oven…I highly recommend using masking or painting tape so nothing is ruined when you pull it off)
- Video: Olive and the Rhyme Rescue Crew
Day 2
- Color in O Outline and o Outline with: oil pastels (Other options: oatmeal, orange, ovals)
- Draw a picture of someone with an “owie” – tell the story (wrote it down for her), and she put band aid on the owie in her picture — she ended up telling the story of when she fell down last. 🙂
- Go on an orange hunt around the house (find things that are orange)
- Activity Sheet 1
- Video: Get Squiggling!
Day 3
- Sing “One two buckle my shoe…”
- Do the opposites puzzle we have (In case you want to make your own or do your own thing, but don’t want to think up the opposite words, here’s a picture of the puzzle. The only one I didn’t agree with was “stand” and “sit.” I would think the complete opposite of standing would be lying down, so we talked about that.)
- Eat O’s cereal
- Activity Sheet 2
- Video: Sesame Street and the Letter O
Day 4
- Letter to a friend whose name starts with O
- Hop on one leg
- Video: Kids Orchestra Movie (while watching she wanted to draw circles [o’s] in a shapes workbook we had laying around…it’s a little cheesy, but comprehensive for their level.)
- Activity Sheet 3
- Starfall Computer Activity
Day 5
- Activity Sheet 4
- Gather up any toys (animals are especially great for this) that start with the letter. Create a centerpiece and display the items. (That flat square thing with purple and red, was the owl she made while her dad made his. 🙂 )
- O dinner
Appetizer: Olives
Dinner: Orzo with o shaped sausages and o shaped zucchini (Yes, that’s a plastic putty knife. 🙂 )
Dessert: Orange Cookies — They were delicious. I used whole wheat flour, so they were thicker than they’re supposed to be, I think. Here’s the recipe.
(Other food options: order out, oranges, onions, okra, onion rings, omelets, Oreo, orange chicken, oatmeal cookies, Ovaltine, olive tapenade, orange beef, oven bake _____) - Bible Story: Obadiah
