It was a glowing Friday! We had lots and lots of nice weather this week, in fact, so nice we actually bobbed for apples. The children had a ball. They loved the challenge and met it well by each child actually getting an apple, and boy were those apples sweet. Success makes things taste especially good.
We tried a new game - a Cheetos relay! It didn't have much point except pure fun. The kids took a Cheeto in their teeth and ran across the playground, chomp chomp chomp, and then took another and ran back. The biggest consumer won!
We had our Golden Bead Club, and all but eight children got a bead. Two of those who did not get one were newly enrolled, and two had been out the week before, so that makes very few children who lost their medals for behavior. Remember, we have to be at school, and we have to be well behaved to get a Golden Bead.
The Knowledge Bee was won by Phoenix and Jack HA who had eight correct answers. Makenzie came in with seven answers, Jill H with six, and Josiah and Ely with five correct answers. We congratulate them on their efforts.
Tom Lonnberg came to talk about Trains on Thursday, and we left his visit for the middle kids and the Kindergartners simply because the younger children were so tired. Mr. Tom talked about the kinds of things older trains had aboard. He brought different hats with him that conductors and baggage men would have worn. He brought big tools with him and an old light.
All in all it was a very special week.
