V is for Volcano

Our first day of our ABC summer we started with the letter V just because I felt like it. All the letters are out of order to allow us to pick and choose making things more flexible and fun, also you never know what to expect as far as weather goes around here.

For the letter V we decided to start with volcanoes because they're pretty awesome.
We started off talking about volcanoes, I had a poster with a volcano and other fun info then I showed them a couple science power points which were made by kids that I found here to show how volcanoes are made, they both seemed way into it.

 We made some Vanilla Vehicle cookies and then took them to some friends.
 We made and played with some lego Vehicles. Levi was quite proud of his.

V Words
vote, vehicle, volcano, vest, van, vision, vegetable, vine, very, view, voice, vanilla, violin, vase, video

Other V activities I thought of:
Make a volcano out of clay then use baking soda and viniger to make it erupt
Play around with their voice (high, low, soft, loud, making funny voices)
Have them listen/watch someone play the violin like on youtube or something
