Group Meeting:  Our opening movement song for today was "Jack in the Box".  Some of the children remembered playing with a Jack in the Box.  We pretended to be in the box and jumped out at the right time.

Story:  The story for today was Fox's Box by Emily Zebrowska.  This book is full of rhyming words as Fox and his friends try to guess what is in the box.  Pig thinks it will be big.  The mouse says it's bigger than her house.  The peacock thinks it will be a clock.  What's inside?  It is something that rhymes with snake. 

Study:  We learned the meaning of the word prism.  I explained it as something that has a face and back that are the same.  A shoe box is a rectangular prism.  A potato chip canister is a prism with a circle for a face and back.  We call it a cylinder. 

Small Groups:  The children learned to make a prism out of playdough and toothpicks.  We started by making two squares.  Using more toothpicks, we put them together to make a cube which is a prism.

Letter Learning:  Vv

Snack:  The snack for today was wheat bread, fruit spread, milk and water.
