Math: Subtracting From 5
Materials and Manipulatives: Use the story book by Eileen Christelow or
say the finger play Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed. Give your child 5 connecting cubes or other
counters to place on a red piece of paper (the bed) and a brown piece of paper
(the chair).
·
As you read the story or say the finger play,
your child starts with 5 monkeys (cubes) on the bed.
·
When one monkey fall off, your child places is
on the chair (5 take away 1 is 4 monkeys on the bed).
·
Continue in a like manner until there are no monkeys
on the bed (5 take away 5 is 0).
·
Pose other problems in which your child
subtracts from 5 or fewer objects.
·
Continue to practice by making a number
line (1-5) on the floor. Have your child
stand on the five while you call out a number between 0 and 5. Your child must jump backward the number of
spaces you indicated and then identify which number he/she landed on. Play several more times.
·
Now create story problems with your child
using subtraction. Have your child use
manipulatives to model the stories. For
example, say, “If there are five ladybugs on a flower and four fly away, how
many are left on the flower?” If your
child is able to solve problems with objects up to five easily, increase the
amount of objects.
6.
Project Approach:
·
Look for the bugs that you want to go out and
study.
·
Materials you may need: magnifying glass, gloves, garden shovel,
tweezers, container to capture a specimen, etc.
·
Possible Bug Homes: under rocks or logs, on plants or leaves, in
trees or hives, beside puddles, in the grass, in the dirt, etc.
·
Record where you find your bugs and the kind of
bugs you find in your bug journal. Draw
pictures if you like.
·
*All insects are bugs, but not all bugs are
insects.

Bible Story: Paul’s Conversion (Acts 9:1-22)
Memory Work: Your sins have been forgiven. 1 John 2:12
Materials: Place
a small cross in a gift-wrapped box.
Wrap the lid separately from the lower section or use a gift bag. Tell the story and do the actions indicated.
Have your child repeat the actions. Designate
two additional areas to move to (the road and the city of Damascus).
Jesus told His helper, “Go and
tell people about Me. Tell them God
loves them.” Move your arms in
sweeping motion. So Jesus’ helpers
went and told people , “Jesus loves you.”
Say to each other, “Jesus loves you.”
One man did not like what was happening. He was mean to Jesus’ helpers. Make an angry face and shake you fist. The man’s name was Paul. One day Paul traveled to another city. He wanted to capture people who were
Christians and make them his prisoners. Pretend to get on a horses. Gallop to another section of the room.
Suddenly
a bright light came from the sky. Paul
fell to the ground. Fall to your
knees and look up. Shield your eyes as
if there were a bright light. Paul
heard a voice. The voice said, “Why are
you hurting Me, Paul?” Stand,
cup your hands around your mouth, and repeat Jesus’ words. Paul was surprised. He asked, “Who are You, Lord?” Look surprised; repeat Paul’s words. The voice said, “I am Jesus.” Cup your hands around your mouth again and
repeat Jesus’ words. Jesus told Paul,
“Go to the city and wait. Someone
will come to you.” Point toward the
“city.”
The
bright light was gone. But Paul could
not see. His friends led him to the
city. Have your child close his/her
eyes and take his/her hand and lead him/her toward the “city.” Paul waited for three days. Hold up three fingers. He thought about Jesus. He said to Jesus, “I am sorry I hurt
You. Please forgive me.” Sit very quietly; repeat Paul’s words.
Then
Ananias came. He told Paul, “God has
chosen you to tell people about Jesus.”
Point to each other and repeat Ananias’s words. Paul was baptized in the name of the
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Pretend to dip and pour water three times as you say again, “In the
name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Paul told many, many people, “Jesus loves
you.” Tell each other, “Jesus loves
you.”
Say, At
first, Paul didn’t know that God has a special gift He wants to give everyone. Show the gift-wrapped box. Let’s pretend it’s a secret. In a whisper voice say, It’s a cross. A cross reminds us Jesus loves us so
much He died on the cross to take away our sins. We don’t want to keep this a secret. We can tell lots of people about God’s
love for us in Christ Jesus.
Sing
the following to the tune of “A Tisket, a Tasket.”
A secret, a secret, I have a happy secret .
God loves me and you can see, I’m as happy as can be.
A secret, a secret, tell everyone this secret.
God loves me and God loves you! Yes, it’s really, really true!
Prayer: Dear Jesus, give me someone I can tell
about Your love. In Your name I pray. Amen.
*Remember, you can do a little or a lot. These are suggestions to help your child stay
on track for Kindergarten in this challenging time. Mrs. Sistrunk and I appreciate any of your
efforts.
