Excellent X-Rays!

X is for xylophone, excellent, fox, fix, box, excel, experiment, saxophone, fax, maximum, foxy, toxic, and x-ray!

We read:

Fox, by Kate Banks


11 Experiments That Failed, by Jenny Offill & Nancy Carpenter


Hattie and the Fox, by Mem Fox


Simms Taback's Big Book of Words


The Mixed-Up Chameleon, by Eric Carle


Excuse Me, by Lisa Kopelke 


We sang:

Head and Shoulders Knees and Toes. (Check out the Wiggles version below)


We did a get-to-know-our-bones dance. 

Move your finger bones. 
Move your arm bones
Move your shoulder bones
Move your back bone
Move your hip bones
Move your leg bones
Move your knee bone
Move your ankle bones
Move your toe bones

Move it all together! Fast! Then slow!

For our craft, we made some X-Rays of our hands and arms! 









Next up: yarn bugs!
