The little astronauts ate their space food today. They had to drink their pudding through a straw so it wouldn't float away in our zero gravity classroom. Their food was 1/4 C milk and 1 Tbsp instant pudding mix. They could choose from chocolate or vanilla. The majority chose chocolate, but a few of them thought it was really yucky! Both kindergarten classes had music together today outside. We have been working on addition, but only with objects until today when we learned how to add pennies. The only difference was to show the cents sign. We read a story called The Magic Finger. See if your child can retell the story to you. It was about a girl who is friends with a family of hunters, but she is very against hunting. She had learned earlier that when she gets really angry, she can point her magic finger at the person who has upset her and cause things to happen to them. She was upset with her friends for hunting ducks, so she pointed her magic finger at them and that night the people turned into ducks and the ducks turned into hunters. When the ducks, armed with guns, came after the humans, the humans had to agree to smash their guns to bits to avoid being hunted.
