We already know so much about dogs! We had a wonderful brainstorming session! We learned about jobs that some dogs have such as guide/helper dogs, police dogs and herding dogs. It was fun to learn about varying breeds of dogs too.
We learned why dogs are stinky, especially when they are wet. Who knew dogs had tiny microorganisms living in their fur and on their skin to help them stay healthy, but also leave waste as they do so?!
We had a lot of fun playing dog games like tug ‘o’ war and fetch and had some fun following dog commands which turned into quite some silly commands. We also made our own paint for paw print art. That was quite a lot of fun seeing everyone’s process.
We really enjoy the book Go Dog Go by P.D. Eastmann, and so we played a game where I would give them a shape/colour/size to find then yell “Go Dogs Go!” and they would run in search of such an item.
Our letters this week were Q and G. The kids built Q with our wooden lines and curves, as well as played search and find activities.
