BFIAR- Blueberries for Sal

We LOVED rowing this book. I was surprised the kids liked it so much, but we ended up reading it multiple times a day. Here are some of the activities we did to go along with this book.

Christopher worked on basic Addition concepts. I would tell him to put 4 blueberries in the pail. Then I would say, “Sal picked 1 more blueberry, how many blueberries does Sal have now?” After he answered I would say, “right 4+1=5”, and so on and so on. When we were finished I asked him to glue 3 blueberries on the pail and write the number 3 in the box.

 

Sammy Made a “B” using Blueberries.

We painted a picture of Blueberries. Then Christopher counted how many blueberries were in the basket.

 

Both of the boys enjoyed working this puzzle, and learning about bears.

Christopher worked on Beginning letter sounds, and handwriting using the pintables’ from Homeschool Creations.  

All of the kids made this painting of paw prints on blueberry hill.

The kids enjoyed a blueberry smoothie, that they each made.
