Craft: Octopus
Our craft this week was based on the craft pictured above. A piece of cardstock was cut in half and eight arms cut about 2/3 way of the sheet. The sheet was then colored and glued into a cylinder. The arms could be rolled or folded.
Literacy Extensions:
- Have your child continue the Over in the Ocean rhyme with other ocean creatures.
- Practice the different sounds of the letter "O". See if your child can come up with words that use the different sounds (i.e. oo - Hoot, long o - old, short o - hot, etc.)
