3rd-6th class 21

  • Warm-ups
  • Memory game where one student said a word, and the student after them had to remember the preceding words, plus add one of their own. We kept adding to the list until people began forgetting and dropped out. Everyone had such amazing memories! Alex won this game.
  • Magic Hat--We passed around the "magic had" and students took turns pulling out a tool. We had to gues what the tool was by the way the student interacted with it.
  • The class divided into groups of two and acted out a short scene from each other's childhood memories.
  • We finished up with an arm wrestling contest. Miss Becky tied with Amari for first place!

K-2nd class 20

  • Warm-ups
  • Memory game where one student started with a word, and the next student had to repeat that word, then add a word of their own and so on down the line until the last student had 22 words to remember!
  • Magic Hat--Each of the students got to reach into the "magic hat" and pull out a tool. They demonstrated what that tool was by using it in front of the class. The rest of the class got to guess what the tool was.
  • Cooled down with some races, this was a high-energy day.

K-2nd class 19

  • Warm-ups-new tongue twister: She sells sea shells by the sea shore.

We were in a classroom today because another group had the stage. We managed to cope the best we could.

  • We drew pictures of activities we would do in the summertime.
  • Miss Becky mixed up the pictures, and then passed them out to the students again. The students had to act out the picture while the rest of the class took turns guessing what the activity was.
