Date: 5/14/20
What is our theme?
Insects, the letter B
What is the lesson (overall Purpose):
Creating a butterfly with the letter B
MA Guidelines/Standards:
F.PK.1: With guidance and support, demonstrate understanding of the organization and basic features of printed and written text: books, words, letters, and the alphabet.

b. (Begins in kindergarten or when the individual child is ready.)
c. (Begins in kindergarten or when the individual child is ready.)
d. Recognize and name some uppercase letters of the alphabet and the lowercase letters in one’s own name.
Learning Outcomes:
Young children need opportunities to engage in many activities that promote the acquisition of emergent writing skills, access to writing materials (e.g., fat pencils, markers, chalk, crayons, blank books, paper) and various forms of writing (e.g., shared writing*,journals, sign-in sheets, name cards, grocery lists) as an integral part of daily activities so they can explore and experiment with the process of writing in many activity areas. Writing should be incorporated across the curriculum, along with feedback and short periods of instruction. In addition, they should be provided with multiple and varied experiences that will encourage the development of fine motor skills.
