The letter 'U'

Today we learned about the letter U.

U sounds like... uh, ooo, and you.

We thought of words that start with U... umberella, ukulele, up, under, underwater and 

umillief (Amelia's contribution - I am not sure if I spelled it correctly!)

And practiced writing big and little letter U's in the air and on our chalkboards.

After learning about ukuleles, we each took turns playing a song on the ukulele 

(while others danced if they wanted to).

I am still trying to get "Get Your Sparkle On" out of my head!

We decorated boxes that we used to make our own ukuleles.

We traced letter U's with underwater creatures (goldfish and whales) and then ate them for snack.

 

We practiced writing letter U's using whatever colors we wanted :)

and played our ukuleles... what a day!
