Nighty-Night

Theme:  Letter N
Letter N is fun to write.  You start at the "ground", climb the "Ladder", slide down, and hurry back up. "Nurse Nina" introduced "N" to us.  We practiced some "N" words such as "nut, nurse, net, no, nothing, night, now, nice, never,.."  Letter "N" sounds similar to "M".  We practiced both the names and sounds of both letters. 

Cute Sayings:
  • I thought it was really cute because after we'd finished singing a song, one little girl looked up and said, "Naughty says 'N'."  I replied, "Yes, and so does 'Nice.'"  :) 
  • "Oh, do that again!  'N' on its side makes a 'Z'!"

Choosing Time:  Number Games, Number Puzzles, Number Magnets, A Squirrel Math Game, Letter "N" Memory, Letter "N" Nest Game....

Science:  What does nocturnal mean? What are some nocturnal animals?
