Today at school, we celebrated the uniting of two letters! We began studying the letter q this week. My students quickly noticed that a "u" always follows a "q". However, they have a hard time remembering that when they are together they make one sound. They learned that "Q's and U's stick together like glue" and this is when the fun began.
Q and U met one day in Mrs. Bailey's class when the students were singing the alphabet chant. Once these two letters became inseparable they decided it was time to get married. What a better place to get married than where you met.
All the letters showed up for the event.
The boys had their "q" bow ties on and the girls wore their "u" corsages.
The groom was ready at the alter.
The music began and down came the ring bearer, the flower girl, and maid of honor.
Then, the beautiful, blushing bride.
After Q made vows to have U by his side, and U to abide by Q's side. The students made a vow that each time they saw "qu" they would pronounce it as one sound. RIngs were exchanged and celebrations followed. We had a dance, beautiful wedding cake, bubbles, and wedding rings for everyone. This was the best wedding ever!
Kindergarten is all about making memories as we learn. Q and U forever! XOXO
