In Mid-March of 2020, Michigan schools and preschools closed their door as part of the "Stay Home-Stay Safe" response to the Covid-19 Pandemic. It was then that Mrs. K began "taping" her classes from the "Cozy Little Cabin." Mrs. K's audience is a great group of 21 4-year-olds who had already gone from A-Z through the alphabet and was at the letter "P" the second time through when the cabin series began. There are now countless viewers from all around the world.

Mrs. K's "Cozy Little Cabin" Class 10: "X"
In this class, Mrs. K introduces the letter "X," which we know is less frequently used than most letters, but she does introduce the Xylophone (and plays it surprisingly well, but she does play piano. Did you know that?) She also introduces the symbolic use of "X" at the end of a letter and in the expression: "X marks the spot." That activity includes a brief "tour" of the spots students might visit before coming to school if we were not in a national "lock down." The numbers 8 and 9 are reviewed and 10 is introduced. The money activity requires 10 pennies, a nickle and a dime. The story is "The Hungry Fox and the Foxy Duck" by Kathleen Leverich (illustrated by Paul Galdone).
