under the letter B with a picture of a bird to your word wall. Show the children objects that start with
the letter B, b(bead, basket, ball). See if the children can find objects that start with the letter B

inside a shallow box. Set out trays of paint. Have children dip egg into paint trays
and they place on the sheet of paper inside the box. Have children move the box back and forth casing the
egg to move around the box. Repeat with different colors. Set out to dry. *Egg Match Cut out a supply of egg shapes from wall
paper scraps and wrapping paper scraps. Laminate the eggs for durability. After laminating
the eggs cut them in half like they have been cracked open. Have the children match the eggs and put them
back together.
*Plastic Egg Float Set out dish pans on a table.
Place plastic eggs in the pans and water. Set out a supply of small fish nets and straining spoons.
Have the children scoop out the eggs using the fish nets. Set out a supply of plastic buckets with
the different colored eggs marked on the outside of each bucket. Encourage the children to drop the eggs
into the matching bucket. *Egg Carton Math Match Set out a supply of plastic eggs
and egg cartons. On the inside top of egg carton place a number of 1-12 or 1-18 depending on the size of
egg carton. Have the children open up the egg carton find the number and place the right amount of eggs
in the carton.
*Who Lays Eggs Memory, make two copies of the different animals from
the back of the lesson, cut into squares and make a memory game. Let the children play one another.
 Setting Up the Environment Dramatic Play Turn your dramatic play area into an Egg House Restaurant. Add Egg House
Menu from the back of the lesson. Add egg cartons, plastic eggs, egg beater cartons, omelet maker, stacking
bowls, wire whisks, aprons, register, order pads and play money. Block Area Add sections of PVC rain gutters so the children can create ramps.
Cut a 10 ft. section into 2 ft. and 3 ft. sections. (You can purchase at Home Depot or any home center for about $10.00
for 10 ft.) Add a basket of plastic eggs so the children can experiment with gravity, angles and slopes.
