This morning Winter and Liza were part of the first lower unit play of the school year. It was a great performance with Liza playing bear and Winter playing the role of a musketeer. During morning meeting, many of the students identified the play as the highlight of their week. This morning we worked on a variety of projects. A few of the students continued graphing the types of trees in the orchard. All of the students worked on parts of our "Big" orchard map. This involved laying out the tree plot and drawing the barn and bigger pines and maples in the field. This afternoon the students worked with the concept of measuring area. This was a fun activity in which they used inch blocks to figure out which candybar (paper version) would have the most chocolate.
*We will be going on our hike next Wednesday. It looks like postponing it was a good idea. Please e-mail me if you are still able to drive.
*A special thanks to Piper and Winter for snapping some of this week's pictures.
Peace,
Tom
