Group Meeting: We are learning a new welcome to school song called "Rise and Shine". Perhaps your child can sing it for you.
Story: The story for today was The Little Red Hen retold by Bonnie Dobkin. I had read the same book at the beginning of the school year and many children remembered that. The Little Red Hen finds wheat seeds. Who will help her plant them, harvest and take the wheat to the mill, mix the dough, and bake the bread? Not I, says the dog, cat and goose. Who wants to help her eat the bread? Ask your child to remind you of how this ends.
Small Groups: After hearing the story, the children used picture cards to put the story in proper sequence. They helped me retell the story.
Large Group: Before the story started, I showed the children a loaf of bread similar to the one that The Little Red Hen was going to bake. I used a knife (simple machine, wedge) to cut it. We shared the bread.
Letter Learning: The letter for today was B. We danced to the boot song, found the B pictures on the Promethean board and traced and printed B.
Snack: The snack for today was Quaker Oat Squares, milk, and water.
