Group Meeting: I have been waiting to share these pictures of our snow people with you. There are still a few missing. They can still be sent. If a new snowman is needed, we can do that too. They are so cute and creative!
Story: The story for today was The Lost Package by Richard Ho. A girl wants to mail a package to a friend that lives across the country. She packs it into a box and labels it with her friends name and address. She takes the package to the Post Office where it is weighed and stamped. Now the package goes onto a van which takes it to the sorting facility. Finally, it ends up on a big truck. Something happens to the package while it is in the big truck. Ask your child to tell you what happens and how the box gets to where it is supposed to be.
Study: This week, we will be learning about people that use packages at their job. Today, we watched a video of an Amazon warehouse worker. We watched him put items into boxes, tape the boxes shut and put them on a conveyor belt. A video camera was placed on the front of a box so that we could pretend that we were the box going through the machines.
Letter Learning: Yy
Small Groups: The children were given papers with the words "Surprise Box" printed over a drawing of a box. They had to think of a surprise that might be in the box and draw that in the box. We tried to sound out a few words that we could print on the box as well.
Snack: The snack for today was Scooby grahams, juice and water.
