F is for Fire Trucks

This week for Wheel School, we worked on the letter F for Fire Truck. Here are a few of the activities that Kaleb worked on.

First, Kaleb traced the letter F using his fire trucks. He was filling the fire truck tanker with his hose.

Kaleb practiced his one-to-one correspondence by "parking" the firetrucks on the fire hydrants programed with numbers from one to ten.

That's one proud boy - this little boy loves his school:)

I gave Kaleb some alphabet beads and had him separate them into piles.

He then thread them onto red, orange, and yellow pipe cleaners for fine motor practice.

He was all smiles.

Using the magnets from Melissa and Doug that I found, I gave him the ones that we have actually worked on - vehicles for letters thru D. I also gave him some magnet letters. We talked about the vehicles and sounds the letter make. He then matched the letters to the correct vehicle.

Using the magnet letters, he matched the letters to the chart and then tried his hand at tracing the letters.

He found all the letter F's in the fire truck and painted them with the stamper.

We played through the rhyme of 5 Fire Fighters using Kaleb's fire truck toys.

Lastly, we played a vehicle matching game kinda like dominoes. He noticed he made a number three. He is getting pretty good at recognizing his numbers as well as  counting objects. I am really proud of how he loves school and loves the challenge of all of the activities that I plan. Way to go, Kaleb! We are on to the letter G - G for Garbage Truck! Have fun!
