Ask Your Child

Can you skip count by 2s?

2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 19, no no no, 20! Am I right?

What happened to the Israelites at the Red Sea?

It split in half and there was dry sand.  The slaves walked on the sand and then the Egypt-jims got on the land and the water closed back up on them.  And...they died.

What can you tell me about an octopus?

They're have eight legs.  Um, they squirt out ink and water.  They have no bones.  They have 3 hearts and a big brain.  They are very smart.  At the night, they hunt for food.  They don't stay in the ocean very long.

Jeana:  They don't stay in the ocean?  Do they go up on land?  Do they fly in the air?
Toby:  No, they don't live very long.  Only one years old.

They don't have any ears so they can't hear.  But they can see very well.  Their blood is blue.  Oh!  And they can change colors.  And they hatch from legs.  I mean eggs.

What did you think about the speech assembly we watched on Friday?

It was good.

Jeana:  You weren't there.
Toby:  Oh.  Well, it was probably still good!
