Children love to fly kites. Let’s tell a story about a day flying kites!
Read the book: “Stuck” by Oliver Jeffers
Tell the children that they are going to draw a picture of what happened to the kite. Who was there, what happened, where it happened?
Have the children tell you about their picture, write it down at the bottom of the page. On day two: Read the story back to the child, and read “and then”, turn the page and have the children draw and tell you about another adventure.Do the same for day three.

Any day at the ocean, kites are flying. |

 | Instructions: As the children learn a letter, attach that letter to the tail of the kite. Display the kite low enough for children to see, and use. Extension Activity 1: Find pictures of items that match the letters. Cut them out and glue to clothespins. Put them in a basket below the kite and letters and let the children put the clothespin next to the letter. Extension Activity 2: Have each child decorate a kite. Help them attach a 3 foot long tail out of ribbon or twine. |
| Cut out 2inch by 2 inch squares. Have each child write the letters on each square. Help the children glue or tape the letters to the kite. It doesn’t matter what order they are in. Display on the bulletin board. Take pictures as children work, and display the pictures next to the child’s kite. |  |
| Have the children assemble their kites and count how many bows are on each. Help them write the words one, two, and three under the correct kite. |  |
| Cut out four small kites, or one for each letter of the word. Place them on a piece of construction paper and lightly trace the edges to help guide the placement of the pieces. |  |
 | Write one letter in each of the kite shapes as well as on the corresponding shape on the construction paper. Draw a picture of what the word is, in this case we used kite. This project will help children associate the image of the kite with the letters that create the word. |
