Track was laid out agin today, for a long run.
There was letter writing with sticks,
drawing,
and puppets.
Then, because photos were being taken in the John Barnes room, we had music in our classroom.
Jenny brought her guitar and her drum and her tamborine.
We sang and danced and clapped and played the rythm sticks.
Then we had Morning Meeting. For the first time, we brought in our stick suggestion box, and it had a bunch of ideas in it. We are going to test some of them out and see about adding them to our book.
At Snack, we discussed rearranging our room and talked about what friend would like to have in it. One friend suggested an ice skating rink, so we got an ice cube to test whether or not it would be cold enough for ice skating in our room. It melted.
We decided to change the block area and make it bigger, but first we had to move out the rug. It was heavy, and friends spent quite a while trying to figure out how to get it out of there. Rolled up, it was also just fun to play on. We finally got it out of there, with some impressive teamwork.
Then we moved some heavy shelves and put down a new puzzle floor.
Then it was time to go and have our pictures taken. We cheered each other on and practiced smiling while we waited. We could nor wait to get to the playground for some well-deserved running around.
