Patience, Patterns and Performances







1.) Avery's preschool work.
2.) Our character jar.  At the times that we catch him displaying certain character traits, we allow him to place a pom pom in his jar.  Once he fills the jar with pom pom's, he can pick out a treat at the store.
3.) Learning about patterns (pattern chart) and using that knowledge to paint a pattern on his flowerpot.  Avery later helped plant sunflower seeds in it, and we have it on our windowsill watching/waiting for the seeds to grow.
4.)  Avery can construct his alphabet letters out of various shapes.  He is learning how rectangles, diagonals, "bumps" and "hooks" can form alphabet letters.
5.) Avery's preschool performance of "I'm In the Lord's Army".
6.) Avery created a shape book at preschool, as well as shape puppets.  He is narrating and performing the story for Aileen and I.
