a great way to review!

This is one of the great craft ideas from Oak Meadow, and I think we'll be using it for all kinds of things for years to come!

Basically your child pokes holes in black construction paper in the shape of the letters and numbers you've been learning. Then you tape them to a window that gets lots of light. Et voilĂ !



Sort of like Lite Bright, but even better, according to my kid.  A very simple idea but one that grips the child. This is one reason I appreciate Oak Meadow. While I may not use their curriculum again (it's up in the air), I do plan to continue integrating the arts and whole child in all subjects.
