Crayon Light Ray Cross - Use the ruler and help Grace draw her own cross template.  Then she can trace it onto a piece of cardstock.  Use the "Twistables" crayons instead of pastels.  They smudge easily.

Bible - Easter story
Sight Word Book - Practice the pink sight words (inside the book on the window sill) and then use them to create sentences. Have her dictate the sentences to you.  Encourage more than one per sentence in some cases (like his, her). Write them in the book I laid out.  She can then illustrate it and read it back to you.
Make Number Post Its - Post Its, Stickers

Sight Word Book - Help her read it, then finish illustrating, and practice the pink set of sight words.
Read Easter books. - In the racks in the bedroom.
What Color is Black? (p. 196) - Black marker, coffee filter, jar, water, pipe cleaner; Review primary and secondary colors.  We talked about them on Tuesday.
Number Memory Match Up  - Match Up Cards; Try just with looking at them, not an actual memory game and have J help.  Grace needs to work on 1-to-1 correspondence and he needs to work on number recognition.
Modern Easter Rabbit - She will probably need help.  Have her pick 3-4 colors for the rabbit, a different set for the background, and another set for the edges.  Help her color - it's a lot and if she does it all herself then her hand will hurt.
