Turtles, Trucks, Trains, & Teddy

Theme:  Letter "T"
I brought in a Tool Box.  We took turns choosing a "T" item from it.  Some of the items had corresponding activities.  We practiced the "T" sound and how to write it. When "T" is placed with "H" it makes a special sound.

Special Guest:
My son, Noah, visited each class to demonstrate a Trumpet.  We had fun guessing the tunes he played.  We learned about the different parts of a trumpet.
