Tuesday, November 8

Group Meeting:   Our rock collection keeps growing.  It's interesting to see all of the different kinds.  Today, we are starting experiments with the rocks that I have gathered.  We will keep our rock display going.

Story:  The story for today was Stick and Stone by Beth Ferry.  This is a book of friendship.  Stone is alone.  Stick is lonely.  When Stick sees Pinecone teasing Stone, he steps in to help.  This creates a friendship between Stick and Stone.  When a storm comes, Stick gets blown away and lands in a puddle of water.  How can Stone help?  Ask your child to tell you.

Study:  Our study questions for the day were; do rocks roll, do all rocks roll, and what makes rocks roll?  I gave the children wooden ramps and various rocks to see if a rock would slide or roll.  We also tried raising the ramps and lowering the ramps to see if it would change the outcome.  

Letter Learning:  The letter for today was C.

Snack:  The snack for today was wheat bread, sugar free jam, milk, and water.
