Group Meeting: The children took a few minutes to look at everyone's stuffed animals that were brought today. We had plenty of extras for those who forgot.
Story: The story for today was Cat the Cat, Who is That? by Mo Willems. Cat the Cat has many friends such as Duck the Duck and Mouse the Mouse. One day she meets someone that she does not know. She is frightened at first because this animal looks a little different than her other animal friends, but the new animal seems friendly. He greets her with a "Blarggie, Blarggie" and that's all she needs to know that they can be friends. After the story, we talked about meeting new friends. In the fall, everyone will be starting a new school with new friends. We talked about giving everyone a smile to let them know that we are friendly, too.
Large Group: We gave everyone's animal a ride in the parachute. We lowered the parachute, counted to three, and lifted as high as we could to launch the animal into the air and gently catch it again.
Snack: The snack for today was Cheez-its, cheese sticks, and water. Tomorrow, the children are asked to bring their own snacks. We do have extras for those who forget!
