If you find a rock (red group)


The red group had a lot of fun exploring rocks today! After reading the story, "If you find a rock", they explored the rocks and came up with great names! This list included: a stick rock, a music rock, a skinny rock, a bumpy rock, a circle rock, a small rock, a friend rock, a jewel rock, a triangle rock, a crystal rock, rainbow rocks, a heart rock, a smooth rock, a spinning rock, an ocean rock, a spot rock, a wishing rock, a fossil rock, a clock rock, a polished rock, a pearl rock, a jumping rock, a digging rock, a hiding rock, a happy rock, a love rock, a stone rock, and a silver rock.


We then played a game with the rocks where we hid our rock in a bin with other rocks and tried to see if we could find our rock with our eyes closed.


We also tried creating pictures and letters with the rocks.


To wrap things up, we brought one special rock to the carpet and shared what made that rock special to us. The reflection was beautiful, with varied, well thought out responses. Ask your child to describe the rock they chose!
