Learning Colors - White

I am going to be focusing on learning the colors one week at a time for the first 9 weeks. While Caleb seems to pick up on letters and numbers very quickly, the colors haven't come as easily for him. The ABC Jesus Loves Me curriculum had us doing 3 colors a week and I knew that would be too overwhelming and confusing for Caleb. Plus, now I can incorporate the colors into our thematic units (A is for Apple - Red, D is for Ducks - Yellow, F is for Frogs - Green)!

This week we learned the color white. I put together a sensory bucket of white items and toys we had around the house. I plan on doing this each week.

Also, every week we will be adding another "scoop" of color to our ice cream cone. :)

For our craft we did a white texture collage.

Supplies used: Construction paper, glue, qtips, cotton balls, yarn, ribbon, ripped up paper towel, foam shape stickers, stamps and a white ink pad.

Caleb's favorite part was using the ink pad to put little white fingerprints all over the paper. :)

The finished piece of art!

And for today's snack....all things white! Milk, yogurt, animal crackers (which I know are more brown than white), sliced banana, string cheese, and popcorn!
