Our class so enjoyed the storyteller, musician, and cartoonist, Keith Munslow, this morning. The children were laughing and singing along with the rest of the school during the presentation. Ask if your child remembers the story about the child with a stomachache!
Ms. PIrelli joined us and read The Most Magnificent Thing. This book was read to help prepare the children for our exciting DEC (Drop Everything and Create) day next week! Ms. Pirelli reminded the KIndergarteners that the plan that they have might have in their minds might be harder to create than they think it might be. This book reminded us about taking a break before getting into the red zone, if feeling frustrated or upset by the process.
During science, we experimented with sinking "rafts" (pieces of wood) made of 2 different materials- pine and plywood. Using a rubber band and paper clips (as passengers), the children had to sink the wood. We then asked "how many passengers will a wood raft hold?". After experimenting in partners, the children compared the 2 different types of wood and decided which would be better for making an actual raft.
