Dear Cygnets

Listen carefully to today’s story. Who do you think sank the boat?

  • If the mouse was already in the boat and the cow got in last, do you think the boat would still sink? Why do you think that?
  • Do you think the boat would sink if the little mouse didn’t get in at all? Why do you think that?

Here is today’s word challenge

Listen to Maddie’s song about floating and sinking to help you with the next activity.

Now try this floating and sinking activity with objects you find around your house.

Your next challenge is to make a boat out of tin foil. How many pennies can you carefully add before your boat sinks?
