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 12: "Z"
In this class, Mrs. K the letter "Z" primarily through words like Zebra, Zipper, and Zoo. She also reviews numbers 10,11, and 12 in order to introuce telling time by the hour. The concept of minutes is not typically introduce at the preschool level, but grasping hours lays the foundation for 60 minutes when counting by tens is introduced inintroduces later grades. An interesting thing happened in the middle of the video. Mrs. K make a "Z" out of playd-dough, but Mr. K asked her to do it so it would be correct from the camera's point of view. This gets a bit confusing, but we did get it right, and no one would have know. BUT... while editing, Mr. K accidently deleted the correct "take." So we ended up using the "blooper" and hope you don't mind a laugh on us. After all, education is all about learning from mistakes and being able to laugh while learning. We did.
(Mr. and Mrs. K have never done anything like this together. Hope you all are enjoying the "Cozy Little Cabin," but Mrs. K sure misses you guys.)
