not a box

for our week of not a box we....

made patterns with unifix cubes

 

explored cubes and color combos

painted with marbles IN a box

played with boxes

and stacked them up like blocks...

**Not a Box by Antoinette Portis is a classroom favorite. The children would often return to the boxes and themes of the story weeks later. I love how the books linger. This is why I love our literature based program.
