"O" is for Octopus (craft project)...


Theme of the Day's Lessons:  Letter O, Number 8

Phonics:  Short O sound

Color:  Octopus can change color.  Choose a particular color that you want to focus on.  

Science:  All about the Octopus - live in salt water/ocean - watch a video on the internet about octopus,  read books or find info about them on the internet.

Numbers:  An octopus has 8 arms.  Count them.  Practice writing number 8

Geography:  On a world map or globe, find and name all of the oceans.

Arts/Crafts:  Make an ocean scene like the one pictured above which incorporates the letter O for the head of the octopus, and making the 8 arms by tracing around the child's hand and fingers, excluding the thumbs.  Add wiggle eyes if you want.  Green strips of construction paper for the seaweed.
