Song time:

Letter O Magnet page downloaded from here, and pom-pom magnets. I’ve had lots of inquiries on these magnets, I made them from medium sized pom-poms and self adhesive round magnets from Wal-mart. Another reader said her store had a large pack of the self adhesive magnets for cheap! All we need is a cookie sheet and we’re set to go!
rOll the Dice Bug Race, downloaded from here, she’s got great games on her blog! A fellow digi-scrapper and designer! Reviews number recognition, your child rolls a die and counts the number of dots, then circles that number on the path. For example a number 2 is rolled, the child would find the line with the number 2’s and circle the first 2 in the line for that bug. The first number rolled 10 times wins. Draw a star or a ribbon in the box for the bug who won the race. I laminated mine so that we could do it a few times, then we just used the dry erase markers on it.
Octopus Counting game, comes with number tiles and 10 octopus to put on page. You can download a copy here.
Uppercase and Lowercase vowel sorting, downloaded from here! Since capital O and lowercase o are basically the same, we did a vowel review instead of “Oo” sorting.
Motorskills chopstick sorting, I used a paint pallet and foam lacing beads.
Chicka-Chicka Boom reading and an “O” and tape to put the letter on our alphabet tree:
Nature Walk Outdoor study grid, she’ll find 6 things in nature and draw pictures of them.

Capital O coloring sheet, excellent job staying in the lines! This is a HUGE improvement from the start of the year, where it was mostly scribbling all over the picture!

O for Octopus color matching puzzles, you can download them here, I printed, laminated then cut the octopus in half to make them into puzzles.
