Letter U
U can say “uh”
Or U can say “yew.”
Whatever you do,
Be careful with U!
There’s up and there’s under
And unicorn, too.
So whatever you do
Be careful with U!

Letter V
V is quite happy
One sound does it know
There’s van and vanilla,
And yes, video!
Can’t think of V’s sound?
Don’t worry or stop…
Picture a volcano
That just blew its top!
UMBRELLA ART
Cut paper baking cups in half. Give one to each child. Help children glue their half cups onto a sheet of drawing paper. These are “umbrella” tops. Next let students glue a piece of pipe cleaner just under their “umbrellas” for handles. Encourage children to draw rainy day pictures around their umbrellas.
DRAWING UNDERNEATH
Tape a piece of drawing paper on the underside of a table top. Invite children to draw a picture with crayons while sitting or lying on the floor under the table. When pictures are complete, display them with this rhyme: We had such fun drawing Under the tabletop. It made us laugh to think That we were drawing up!
U TOSS IT!
Cut out several large letter U shapes from poster board. Insert a wooden dowel into a coffee can of dirt. Invite children to try to toss the U shapes and get them around the dowel.
VERY COOL VISORS
Purchase foam visors like these from a craft store or online. Invite children to use puffy fabric paint or other fabric paint to decorate and personalize their visors. Then you might invite them to sing this little jingle (sung to tune of “Farmer in the Dell”): A visor shields my eyes, A visor shields my eyes. I wear a visor ’cause I am very wise!
VEGGIE CUT UP
Cut a variety of vegetables into simple shapes. Children can dip the shapes into different colors of paint and create collages of prints. Then serve cut raw vegetables with dip for children to taste.
VOTING FOR VANILLA
Have a vanilla party and set out small portions of vanilla pudding, vanilla milkshake, vanilla wafers, vanilla frosting, and so on. Let children taste the samples and vote for their favorite. Create a “Vanilla Chart” and record children’s votes on it. Finally, ask more-than or less-than questions that the children can answer by using the chart.

Remember, too, that a little bit of kindness goes a long, long way, especially in a profession that can be fairly thankless at times. Be a great parental support—in and out of the classroom—and throughout all of this teacher talk, be sure to be a great listener.
It’s amazing what we can learn sometimes when we let someone else do the talking

From the Book: Great Games for Young Children by Rae Pica. Adapted by Paula Lyra
In this age of academics” and “accountability”, children are getting fewer and fewer opportunities to play. Because we know that children learn through play, we have to stand strong in our convictions. Play is absolutely essential for children, and any curriculum that excludes it is not meeting the needs of the whole children.
In the traditional game of Simon Says, for example, the children eliminated first are the ones who most need to work on their body- part identification and listening skills! With simple modifications, almost any game can be played without eliminating children. With Simon Says, try arranging the children in two circles. When a child moves without permission, that child simply goes from one circle to another!
Waiting doesn’t come naturally to young children and shouldn’t be imposed on them too often. Besides, a child who is waiting is not actively participating and therefore not having all possible benefits. Whenever you can, choose games that let everyone in the group participate. Or, if you play a game that has one child at a time participating, divide the group into several small groups, so it allows more children to be active
If, you want to form 3 groups, ask the children to count off from one to three. All the ones then belong in one group, and so on. For a partner activity, play a quick game of Back to Back, in which you invite the children to get back to back with someone as quickly as possible while you count down from 5 to 1. By the time you reach 1, all children should have a partner.
Although this is not always possible, try to do it as often as you can. Circle games bring about a sense of community, of belonging, that no other formation offers. A circle allows the children to see and hear everyone else. And, to remain part of the circle, they must accept the rules and roles assigned.
Children will have plenty of time to experience competition later in life, and it isn’t developmentally appropriate for early childhood years. Play many different cooperative games, which help children, learn to be successful at working together, an essential social skill for becoming part of a society. Research shows that preschoolers prefer cooperative games to competitive ones.
Whenever possible, play outdoors. Today’s children are spending less time outdoors, than at any other point in history. As a result, they are losing their connection with nature and missing out on the sensory experience only the outdoors can provide. Besides, play a game outside for a change, can add a new whole element to it. With Follow the Leader, for example, new obstacles create new pathways and challenges.
If you learn how to do games that take varying lengths of time, then you will always know just what to do when an opportunity to play arises. Be sure to include games that focus on a variety of concepts and work with different sizes of groups.
Choose games that develop all three domains. For example, Over & Under is a game that requires a group of children to stand in a circle with each child facing another child’s back. The children alternate between passing a ball over the head and through the legs of the next child. The ball- handling and flexibility aspects contribute to physical development. The circle and the cooperative nature of the game foster a social/emotional development. And the actions familiarize the children with important prepositions, promoting cognitive development.
