It's funny I don't usual...Susan-THANK YOU! It's funny I don't usually do a lot of singing, but this week I went CRAZY. Alyssa LOVES singing and music so I figured I would key in on her likes a bit more regardless of how much I dislike singing. LOL! I had so much fun thinking about the props to use for songs. I enjoyed watching Alyssa do the same thing during her playtime. <br /> Oh ... gosh ... right now I can't remember when I started exposing Alyssa to patterning. I know that she was VERY young. She started reading and recognizing words at 17 months old if not sooner (if she couldn't say it she would sign or act it out). This of course shocked me and took my teaching in a new direction with her. I'll look back at my pics before my tot school postings. It is so hard because kiddos learn at different rates in different ways. <br />But, (and I am no expert) I would go ahead and try it. Introduce a basic AB color pattern to your daughter and keep it simple. You could even try a listening pattern first (snap, clap). If it is too confusing, difficult, or not any fun for her then I am sure she'll let you know in some way. That's really what I do with Alyssa. Sometimes I think an activity might be too hard, but I am curious what she already knows and she surprises me. There were times that she liked the activity we did, but I could tell she didn't understand the concept. I just consistently did similar activities with her and she learned. I hope this helps, but ask around ... you may get the opposite answer from someone else. You know your child best!!! Sometimes I feel like I am holding Alyssa back ... reviewing stuff she already knows. But, I don't want her to forget the basics and she enjoys learning. <br />TraceyA Learning Journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09796182670039545255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151049058887204920.post-17055006310621997622010-03-16T19:05:54.018-05:002010-03-16T19:05:54.018-05:00Carisa-THANK YOU!

I was just hoping there was some other scripture reference so that I only had to replace the last tile. I guess that I have learned my lesson ... I need to research or check things before using them. That website still has some great activities to use. UGG! I am so embarrassed! <br />Please enjoy the Noah's Ark activities with your child - if it is an activity that I created please send a link back to my blog.

It's great that you have included links to all the resources you've used, which makes it much easier for other people to have a go. I wonder if you have seen this new <a href="http://www.dolchword.net" rel="nofollow">Dolch sight words</a> site - it has some fun online games for practising the sight words as well as rainbow-colored flashcards and useful lists.Louisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04963474027810712453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151049058887204920.post-23886018424433965692010-03-16T15:59:57.595-05:002010-03-16T15:59:57.595-05:00She is so cute!

My little one likes songs so much and I always forget to use them. <br /><br />Also, when did you start patterning with Alyssa? I think my daughter is similar to how Alyssa was at 22 months (knows all her upper case letters, most of her lowercase letters, shapes, colors, and numbers.) She is pretty good at counting but I am starting to slip in some patterning things. Do you think it is too early?<br /><br />I love my Mac too, and I always read your posts!Susan-Chasing Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10022521007386126946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151049058887204920.post-53503782342865123612010-03-16T15:03:40.279-05:002010-03-16T15:03:40.279-05:00Oh, wow!

You may have posted late, but you posted PLENTY of amazing activities! <br /><br />My naptime goal today was to decide on a theme for our upcoming "N" week. I'm really tempted to make it easy on myself and go with a Noah's Ark theme. Your activities and research are so impressive!<br /><br />About Hebrews 11:11, I looked it up in several different versions of the Bible, and it's referring to God keeping his promise to bless Abraham & Sarah with a baby. <br /><br />Genesis 9:13 is a great verse, but it's long for a little one. Maybe you could just go with 9:13a - "I have set my rainbow in the clouds." That makes it a little shorter for a small one - although your daughter is such a smart one she might just understand covenant! :)<br /><br />I *love* your Tot School posts! You really don't have to worry about your posts going unread. :)MamaDuck76https://www.blogger.com/profile/07369935777865369677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151049058887204920.post-26749814056845703732010-03-16T07:01:56.806-05:002010-03-16T07:01:56.806-05:00Oh gracious, where do I begin...
