We practiced writing both the capital & lowercase letter "H". We practiced its sound. We brainstormed words that begin with "H". Some of those included: Ham, Hat, Home, Huck, Hazel, Have, Honey, Happy,...We can remember what a lowercase "H" looks like by remembering that it is a house with a tall chimney :)
Choosing Time: Horses, Make individual Bee Hive games, House,...
Game: Which Hive is the Bee Hiding in?
The children liked this game so much they wanted one to take home. To Play: choose one person to leave the room. While he's out, have another person hide the bee under one of the Hives. The person comes back to the room and gets 3 chances to guess where the bee is Hiding.

Science:
- How Hot air can fill a balloon--We placed a balloon over the lid of an empty water bottle. We submerged the bottle into a bowl of boiling water. The balloon rose and filled with the hot air. We took the bottle out of the hot water and watched the balloon deflate.
- Hovercraft--We made our own hovercraft using an old DVD, a bottle top, and a balloon
- Hibernation--When I asked the kiddos what hibernation means I received some interesting answers: " Then I defined it for them as a winter sleep that some animals take. We talked about some of the animals that hibernate and others that migrate and some that just stay awake where they are.
