Group Meeting:  Everyone has had a turn to be the King or Queen of the Day twice.  We are going to take a little break from that and start again next week.  

Story:  The story for today was Box Meets Circle by Aaron Hartline.  Box and Circle want to be friends.  They are trying to decide what they can do together.  Circle can jump, but Box can't.  Box likes to sit, but Circle will roll away.  Does that mean that they can't be friends?  Ask your child to tell you what they can do together.

Small Groups:  Not all of the small groups had the opportunity to build a prism yesterday.  We continued that today.

Letter Learning:  Ww

Large Group:  The children played a game that we call "Four Corners".  We put four colored cones on the floor in the shape of a large rectangle.  The children pick a cone to stand by.  One person closes their eyes and counts to 10 while each of the players choose different color cone to stand by.  With eyes still closed, the counter names a color.  All of the children standing by that color sit in the middle.  The play continues until there is only one person left.  We all cheer for the winner!  This is a good game for taking turns and learning how to be a good sport.

Study:  The question for today was "Are these the same?"  I had a box and a square.  We decided that they were not the same.  The box is a prism.  The children have started to be creative using the boxes that have been brought to school.  If your child would like to bring another box to school to use, they may do so.

Snacks:  The snack for today was cereal (AM class had Cheerios, PM had Rice Chex), milk, and water.
