For social studies we learned about the American flag. We talked about why there are a certain number of stars and stripes and what they represent. The boys then colored their own flag.
Another Pintrest game I found was Power Tower. Using dixie cups you write sight words and have the kids read them. If they get one wrong they have to knock the tower down and start over. I started with ten sight words William had been struggling with. He has to look at the word and say it before he can stack it. Once he builds his tower he can bowl and knock it over.
The younger two also wanted in on the game. I had William say the word to his brothers and then have them repeat the word. Once they were done they could bowl.
To make it harder for William I had him use the word in a sentence once he said the word. I wanted him to understand what the word meant. He did great with his first ten words and is now on to his second set. Once he's done with three sets I'll have him do them all and see how big of a tower he can make.
