Happy Birthday and Weekend!

My birthday is on Sunday so we had cupcakes and it was super fun.

This morning started out with a great finish to our Social Studies lesson. We came up with a list of things through voting and motions brought forward by members of our political parties to bring to our Halloween party. The list is long but agreed upon by the whole class so it was neat to see what they valued for treats and what they did not. Just an FYI celery sticks were on the chopping block but survived the vote :) Halloween Candy was not so lucky haha

We practiced how to operate by consensus and planned a trip to a new plant. We had to a list of 10 experts and told the kids we had to take it down to 5. Great debate raged about if there is a need for a religious leader or a musician, who is better to have around an engineer or a carpenter. Then some kids asked if their parents can come and that changed the whole conversation because of the skills their parents could offer.

We then decided it would be fun to try and describe what our partners look liked when eating a Warhead sour candy. We laughed and had a lot of fun. Some kids even drew what their face would look like if they were shaking. It was very funny :)


We had a great week and hope everyone has a great weekend.
