Small Groups

We've had small group time most days since the beginning of the year. Usually we (6 kids, 1 teacher) read a book together and some days we end the time with a short activity. I really think this time is important, and doing it early in the day at 9:30 has really been working out. This week, we split into groups, read a story together and then did one of 4 things...a Bingo game, journals focusing on our name, sorting by color, and an ice experment.  Every child got a chance to explore an ice cube tray. I froze toys in the trays and they had to figure out how to get them out, salt, water, and banging were just some of the methods!
