This week should have been our zoo field trip! Hopefully we will be able to meet at the zoo this summer and enjoy each other's company again!!
Even though we can't go to the zoo, we are going to pretend and play zoo! Some screen time options for zoo tours are the Cincinnati Zoo Home Safaris, San Diego Zoo Kids and others. If you have a good recommendation, please share it!
Our zoo activities for the week are-
- Invite to create an animal- you have received a bag of animal print paper to make into your own animal any way you'd like!
- I Spy Zoo Animals- on this page you need to find out how many of each animal there is on the page and do your best to write the number on the bottom
-Stripe the tiger and the zebra- you have a tiger and zebra, but they are plain, draw or paint stripes, any color you would like
-Sort the animals into their habitats-there are six different habitats and lot of animals. Where are they supposed to live? Answers are on the back of the habitats for the grown ups :)
- Animal puzzles- make six different animals, you can mix them up too!
- Zoo coloring pages, some in the support of the Detroit Zoo
- Sew a cage and make a cage from styrofoam and popsicle sticks- I know that we don't really put animals in cages, but it's fun to make. To sew a cage, use the plastic needle and yarn to make the "bars" of the cage and choose and color one of the animals to put in the cage. To make the styrofoam/popsicle stick cage, each one has an animal and you can use popsicle sticks to press into the styrofoam to make a cage.
- Zz is for zoo- trace Zz and draw your favorite zoo animal
- Sandpaper Zz to trace
-An animal action die to roll and do what animal action comes up
- Have a snack of Animal Crackers!
- Move like the animals in the following videos- I highly suggest just listening :) We have the CD at school - I didn't realize just how old these are! Animal Action 1 and Animal Action 2
Jesus Time- This week we have the story of the disciples on their way to Emmaus. Two disciples of Jesus were heading out of town on Easter evening, discussing the events of past week. A third man joined them and asked what they were talking about. They were amazed he hadn't heard about what had happened. They told him about Jesus, his entry on Sunday, his beating and crucifixion on Friday and even that some women said that angels said Jesus was risen. They didn't know what to believe! Jesus patiently went through the Scriptures with them, from the Old Testament prophecies to the New Testament fulfillment and showed how Jesus fulfilled each one. Jesus kept them from recognizing him. As they were stopping for the evening meal, Jesus made that he was continuing on. They invited him to join them and as he broke and blessed the bread, his identity was revealed and he disappeared from sight. They were astonished! They ran back to Jerusalem to tell the disciples what they had just seen! He is risen! He is risen indeed!
Praying that all continues to go well with you!! Let us know if there is any other assistance you might need at this time!!
See you at packet pick up or drop off!
