Bible Teaching and Play
Bible Story: Creation Days 4-7
Scripture: Genesis 1-2
Help reinforce creation with fun snacks:
Cut the shapes out of the Sun, Moon, Stars worksheet. Paint the sun yellow. Glue all shapes on a black piece of construction paper and add the phrase "God made the sun, moon and stars" at the bottom of the page.
Sponge paint a paper plate light blue. Once dry, paint the child's hand and press it onto the plate to create the shape of a large fish. Afterward, wash the child's hand. Next, dip a fingertip in green paint and stamp at the bottom of the plate to create plants. Finish by stamping red fingerprints around the plate to represent small fish. Using a black marker, add fins, a tail, an eye, and a mouth to the small fish. Also, add an eye and mouth to the large fish.
Using a washable ink pad, create fingerprints of several people in your family. Using a magnifying glass, compare the different fingerprints. Discuss how each person is uniquely and wonderfully made. Add the title "Day 6 God made people."

Academic Teaching and Play
Colorful Food
Focus on the colors of creation in the Bible story - brown (tree), green (grass, leaves), yellow (sun) - by coloring the Colors of Creation coloring sheet.
Keep using the Building with Colors Template to add this week’s new colors to the ice cream cone. Let the child have fun as they build up their cone with each new color!
Straight down and then you’re done. That’s the way to make a one!
This week use short colored pencils to draw repeated straight lines (draw 1's) on the Number 1 Poster. Add one sticker.
Using the Five Little Ducks from last week, write an "O" on mommy duck. Then, ask the child to arrange the mommy duck and the "1" duck in order, starting with "O" for mommy duck and then "1" for the next duck.
The My First Steps to Math books by Jane Moncure were once a key part of the 3-Year Curriculum because I found them to be the best for teaching numbers. Unfortunately, they are no longer in print and have been removed from the Basic Curriculum. However, I highly recommend searching for them at your library, on Amazon, or in used bookstores—they are worth it!
Pre-Reading Learning
Begin by reading Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? by Dr. Seuss. Read multiple times providing wait time for the child to repeat the sounds. This is just one of many Dr. Seuss books. Spend the week reading from a wide selection of Dr. Seuss titles.
Watch the "Teaching a Child to Sit Quietly for Reading and Learning" video if the child is unwilling to sit for an appropriate amount of reading time.

Developmental Learning and Play
Using sidewalk chalk, start by drawing simple lines and have your child copy them. Then switch roles, allowing your child to draw while you copy. Gradually move from lines to basic shapes. Be sure to use brown, green, and yellow chalk to match the colors in this lesson.
Practice kicking a ball. Start with a large ball and progress to a smaller one. Set up a goal and take turns being goalie.
