Friday

Today we raked leaves in the neighborhood around the school! We did it in our friendship groups (this way we can mix up the grades and have them all interacting). After raking the leaves we all had hot chocolate and the kids had recess. Since it was a half day because it was the end of the marking period, we had the students in the classroom for about an hour until dismissal. In this time I saw the 5/6 graders for Spanish and also the 7/8 graders. We did activities using our family vocabulary words. We played charades and also I taped a card on their back and by asking questions in Spanish they had to figure out who they were! They did great!
