Pulleys

Group Meeting:  The last simple machine that we will be talking about is the pulley.  We watched a short video about how a pulley works.

Story:  The book that I read today was Pull, Lift, Lower: A Book About Pulleys by Michael Dahl.  This book gave several examples of working pulleys including a crane, window blinds, and elevators.  The children in the book used a pulley to lift things into their tree house.

Small Groups:  The children from the Red Group brought items for Show and Tell.

Tomorrow is Bring a Grown-up to School Day.  We have several things planned for children and adults using simple machines.

Letter Learning:  The letter for today was Tt.

Snacks:  The morning snack was Goldfish and cheese sticks brought by Andy.  The afternoon snack was Goldfish and juice brought by Charlotte.  Thank you, Andy and Charlotte!
