All in a DAY's work!

I planned this post and the last post together- there just wasn't a way to put everything together this week. Friday was epic and I'd love to take you through it.

We started our day with a visit from Champ at all school morning meeting.
Next was our most challenging lego robotics session yet.  The task was:  working in pairs to design a sign that would warn people of a frog or turtle crossing in the spring time.
Try to imagine how to go on from there?  How bout a Harry Potter themed Candle Day complete with a home made slime potion.  Hearing about a friend's deep love for a book series and its central character can be very motivating.  I suspect you might be asked to read some HP to your child in the coming months!
At this point in the day I was very grateful for our fifth grade buddies.  Each of Mr. Wright's students took their happy and excited end-of-the-week kindergartner under their wing and helped them to create truly special "biopoems" that you will be hearing more about soon.  Have a look.
