Theme- Letter E- Eggs

Letter Time- Show the kids the letter E. Talk about what sound the letter E makes. Have them repeat it.

Exploration- Talk to children about all the animals that come from eggs (birds, snakes, turtles, fish, lizards, etc) Had different sized and colored eggs cut out of construction paper for the kids to "crack" open and see what animals come from the different eggs. Make a dinosaur egg by hard boiling an egg and soaking it in vinegar for a couple of days. It makes the egg soft and leathery.

Read Green Eggs and Ham

Snack/Craft- Decorate hard boiled eggs then eat them. Or make green eggs and ham.

Practice writing the Letter E and color picture.

Physical Activity- Have the kids pretend to be animals in the eggs and have them pretend to hatch and act like the animal they were pretending to be.

Story Circle- Read Green Eggs and Ham- Review The letter E and the sound that it makes.
