Today is a little known holiday called "Lost Sock Memorial Day". It is a day where we pause for a moment to think about where all of our lost socks may have ended up. Here's a riddle for you: Every person in this room who is wearing socks has a hole in each one. How do I know this? (click here for the answer)
Watch this video about Lost Sock Memorial Day...
Use this video 2 times. The first time you'll watch the video, pausing so the kids can try each of the dance steps and the second time so the can dance along with the video.
Don't sit down yet! Gather in the middle of the room for this activity. As you are given choices either move to your RIGHT (to the cabinet side of the room) or to your LEFT (the clock side of the room).
Please sit on the floor in a circle around BOTH carpets but make sure you are facing the front of the room. Mrs. Heigel is going to drag the bucket of clipboards to the middle of the floor (someone could offer to give her a hand...hint, hint!) along with some plain white paper and pencils. Carefully grab one of each and follow along with "How to Draw a Lost Sock". If there is time you can use the markers (those can come out now) to decorate your sock.

Did you know that today is Lost Sock Memorial Day? It's a special day to think about all of the socks we have ever lost. I wonder where the have gone?
Watch this story about looking for a lost sock.
Let's get up and move a little bit! Make sure you stay in your own "bubble" space!
I wonder what some people are hiding inside their socks... maybe it's stinky feet, or maybe it's suuuuuuper long toenails, or maybe It's Bookaboo and a story about a Hairy Toe!
Let's take a little dance break...remember to stay in your circle spot!
