The wheels on the bus

Loved Cadham's shirt

Our sight words this week were "on" and "the."  I chose these because they are repeated often in the song, "The Wheels on the Bus."  I underlined these words in a book with the same name so that the kids could see them, and hopefully start recognizing them, as they flip through the book.  I also used tape on the carpet (with black lines to make it look more like a road...I know, I know.  You've never seen a blue road) so that they could drive cars over their sight words-to make it more interactive.  When that became old, we used blocks to trace the words. 

We also adapted the song based on the mode of transportation that we were focussing on that day.  Today we sang, "The wings on the plane fly fly fly."  Good times!
