The snow day couldn't have come at a more perfect time. We have been talking about winter and some activities you can do in the snow. We read Snowmen at Night, which is a book about what snowy activities snowmen do when we aren't awake. We then talked about what we could wear in the winter. To make this idea concrete, we had a winter clothes relay!! This was a team building activity where one student was being dressed, and the other students had to dress him/her. They also had to sort through the clothes to decide if they were winter appropriate.
FInally, on our half-Friday, we did probably the most exciting thing we've done all year: CLEAN OUT JADE'S CAGE. I was more scared than the kiddos. We talked out a way to get Jade out, and then went outside as a class to clean the cage. They loved it!! What a great way to end the week.
