SOUND DISCRIMINATION ACTIVITY~Each week, we add a drawer of objects for the new letter sound. Currently, we have a drawers for the /B/, /M/ and /T/ sounds. For this activity, children choose 2 drawers of objects....
...this child chose the /B/ and /T/ drawers.
The child dumps out the objects from both drawers into 1 pile.
Next, the child divides the objects into 2 groups, based on the beginning sound of each object.
Once finished, the child puts the objects back into their correct drawers.

This week's "animal of the week" is a tiny turtle. Today we discussed the fact that turtles are reptiles. Our previous "animal of the week" animals were a bear and a monkey--both mammals. On Wednesday, we will continue to discuss and learn about the differences and similarities between mammals and reptiles.
