H for Hand

If you are new to Read to Me & ABC, please start here.

Read to Me

Our book of the week was Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb by Al Perkins.

Alphabet Art- Horrible Hairy H!

Supplies
H Pattern
Glue
Fur (I found this at Hobby Lobby); cut into three strips to fit the H.

Let your student figure out which piece goes where on the H. Add glue to the H and pat down the fur.

Lessons & Lapbook

I used the lessons and lapbook from Homeschool Share.  I also used a few pieces from the H portion of the Alphabet Notebook.

Let's Make a Memory ~ Hand Art
We did a few fall hand arts because we completed this letter in October. You can search for various hand art projects to meet your seasonal need. The fish would work anytime! 

Directions for fish bowl: Cut out a fishbowl shape. Paint it blue. Let it dry. Add a hand print in a contrasing color (yellow, orange, etc.). Let it dry. Add google eyes. Add beans for aquarium rocks and white pony beads for bubbles.
