The octopus day

1. We started with our octopus videos with different versions of the slippery fish: With drawings and letters: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTQZhPL3qtI&feature=related With a flannel board: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfKexWw88m4&feature=related With a girl singing the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVM-UsBWK24&feature=related Finally with pre-k children singing the song at her graduation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkMJHY-mpq0&feature=related She really enjoyed this song and was quickly singing it. It was funny to see her at her playing solo time saying “oh no!”. 2. We started coloring an octopus (http://confessionsofahomeschooler.blogspot.com/2010/04/prek-letter-o.html ).

3. Then we sorted the octopus by size (http://confessionsofahomeschooler.blogspot.com/2010/04/prek-letter-o.html )

4. Finally, we punched our straws in the octopus box. I printed the lacing octopus, stuck it on a big box and punched holes. She had difficulty with the straws because they were easy to bend so I changed them for wood sticks. She did a great job!

Mom’s favorite, in the turtle pool with tata!

  1. I love the slippery fish song! We sing it at a place called "Pal Zone" where I take my 2 year old son for play time once a week. He just recently started singing a little bit and will now sing this with me. I never thought to look on You Tube for it. I am going to start following your blog. It looks like I will gain some good ideas from you!
