Today as we read What do you do with a chance? The children made many connections with the other stories we read by Kobi Yamada. The children shared that when they take a chance they are trying something new and taking a risk. Later we talked about how taking a chance is like being courageous too.

Today we reflected on similarities and differences of things we observed about what we like to eat and what our friends in India like to eat. We noticed that geography can influence the types of food you eat too! Our friends in India eat lots of fish. We are thinking they do because the ocean is very close to their country.
