Mr. B, who loves to share his beautiful buttons, bounces into our room.

 

Sharing is Mr.. B's theme and what a perfect week for Mr. B to arrive since we will be doing much sharing as we prepare for the feast.

 

A great book to read about sharing is Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister.

 

We will be looking at all different kinds of buttons from OUR BUTTON BOX  and trying to find ways to group them together.  Do you have any old buttons that you would like to get rid of?  Ask Grandma about her Button Box.

Buttons are a lot of fun to play with and it is a great opportunity to have the children group and then tell why a certain groups of buttons go together (color, size, shape, number of holes, where used etc.)

 

Mr. B is also excited about the fact that we will be making BUTTER this week.

 

Practice drawing the letter "B".  Review the letters "A", "M", H", P", "W"and "N". Remember to start all strokes from the top. 

 

Look for things around your house that begin with the letter "B".
