While they were busy sharing their compositions and learning new writing techniques, the young 5's were busy reading about whales and making whales out of brown paper lunch sacks.
We did explain to them that the Bible says Jonah was swallowed by a "big fish", but we took liberties and pretended it was a whale. Here Sally is demonstrating the whale swallowing Jonah.
After playing with Jonah and the Whale for a while, we made waffles for snack. Yum!
Another great day at co-op!

I learned how to do some balloon animals back in high school, and one of them taught the story of Jonah (including the fish "vomiting" him out!). The kids we always did it for LOVED it :)
