Today we discuss the nursery rhyme Jack Be Nimble. First we introduced the nursery rhyme by singing it several times through. Then for fun we put each girls name in place of Jack's name. As we recited the rhyme with the girls names they got to jump over the candlestick.
Next we worked on some math by arranging four candlesticks from smallest to largest.
Next, we went back to the nursery rhyme. We looked for all the uppercase and lowercase J's, circled them and then counted them all up.
Once we finished, it was time to make our own candlesticks. We used paper towel rolls cut in half; the girls decorated those with markers and stickers and then brought them over to be glued to paper plates. I use a hot glue gun to attach them to the plates. To add the "flame" we use orange tissue paper that we twisted, placed in the hole and fluffed at the top.
