Dear Oak,
Tape is fun! Rainbow color tape is even more fun. It’s tricky to separate a piece from the roll. It’s sticky and sticks to itself. Tape can only be used one time. Once all the tape is used, it’s gone. No more tape. No more tape means no more tape fun. I see you using just what you need, so there will be more tape tomorrow.
Today, you had an excellent idea. I ask you to use tape and scissors at the mark making table. It’s easier to just use what we need there, and the sharp scissors don’t end up where someone might step on them barefoot. Ouch!
I was surprised to see you with the tape and scissors taking care of the babies at the doctor’s office. I didn’t remind you about using the tape and scissors at the mark making table. I watched instead. You had an excellent idea. I had not thought of it. You used the tape to bandage the babies.
I did remind you to only use what you need and to return the scissors and tape when you were done. It’s easy to forget. You took care of the babies, each other, and Rainbow School too.
Love,
Teacher Michelle
