Cookies for All  by Katrina Lybbert 
Chocolate chip, shortbread, sugar cookies too,
Peanut butter, lemon creme, all for me and you.
Snickerdoodle, oatmeal, gingerbread too,
Pinwheels, pumpkin, they're very good, it's true!
Even the toughest cookies 

c     r     u     m     b     l     e


Dipped in milk

Or eaten plain

Chocolate like silk

Cookies & Cream;

Peanut butter

Nutter Butter

Oreo's

Who to blame

Sneaking in the night

Only for a bite

Sweet and touchy

Creamy and crunchy

Let the sugar rush come

Oh, now hand me a tum

Upset tummy

My nose is runny

What's this i hear?

I can't take sweets as I please?

Oh, come on...

You can't blame the cookies!

Who, me? Yes, you!
Couldn't be! Then who?

Who, me? Yes, you!
Couldn't be! Then who?

A circle's like a ball.
A circle's like a ball.
Round and round it never stops,
A circle's like a ball.

  • Walk through your home looking for circles.

CIRCLE BEAR PRODUCT AND PATTERN:






























(W) Letter  The letter this week is the letter Ii.
I – body, roof, floor
i – down, dot

Big I starts with one side of a door.  All it needs is a roof and a floor.
Little I goes down, it’s an ice cream treat.  Add a sprinkle on top and it’s ready to eat.

  • Give your child a printout of the (capital) letter I to color.  ~Letter Printouts~
  • Teach your child to trace the shape of the letter I using his finger.  You can trace in pudding, finger paint, a shallow tray (cookie sheet) filled with rice or beans, etc.
  • Point out the letter I in signs, cereal boxes, etc.
  • Post the letter I on your learning poster.
RHYME FOR LETTER I:
I scream,
You scream,
We all scream
For ICE CREAM!

NURSERY RHYME FOR LETTER I:
Itsy bitsy spider
Went up the water spout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain.
And itsy bitsy spider
Went up the spout again.

9 – Make a hoop and then a line.

All on a summer's day;
The Knave of Hearts
He stole those tarts,
And with them ran away.
