Transition Song: The Rainbow Song by Signing Time aka TreeSchool
I took some time to teach the children the ASL signs for the different colors before we started the song. I recommend using Signing Time's Sign Dictionary if you would like to learn signs at home. Also, check out their videos online or at the library.
Vocabulary and Concepts: Who, Where, Under, Happy/Sad, Hiding, Elephant, Dog
Materials: Laminated Letter P, Hiding Phil book
Refer to January Week 1: Hiding Phil to see this activity. We're doing it again because the preschool SLPs for the district asked me to film it for our next professional development meeting.
Pre-Literacy: Let's draw the letter P. Start at the top and draw down. Go back to the top and draw a little around. What words have that /p/ sound? Purple has TWO /p/ sounds! Help, pop, picture, popcorn, popsicle, party, happy.
