The Little Red Hen- March 25

I apologize for being so late at posting for last week's class. Here's what we did last week:
*We worked on learning our phone numbers. We made mini phone books.
*We baked banana bread after reading the story, The Little Red Hen.
*Talked about measurements and being helpful.
*We had a special guest, Carissa, Michaela's sister.
Tomorrow, we will be reading, The Little Red Hen Makes A Pizza. We'll be making our own pizzas to eat for lunch. The pizzas will probably be more than enough for each child but if you'd like to pack a side of fruit or something else, feel free to do so. If your child isn't eating pizza then obviously you would need to pack a full lunch. Thank you! This is a fun activity that the children always look forward to. Our cooking unit has been a lot of fun. Oh, and I hope to have the recipe books ready to go home in about a week.
Did the Little Red Hen do the right thing? Here's what some of the children said:
"No because her friends didn't do the right thing and she didn't do the right thing." ~Michaela
"I don't know." ~Carissa
"She did because her friends did not help." ~Charlie
"She didn't do the right thing because you always need to be a nice person and give." ~Jackson
