What we have been up to...

Last week was a busy week with LOADS of fun!!!
 

We played Volleyball and Kickball for Rec.


 
We went to Bledsoe Creek State Park and met the park volunteers!  There, we went over safety precautions to use while in the park and some rules and guidelines.  After that, we went on a short hike and out on the dock for a look around the water.  We saw turtles, birds, fish, and turkeys, and lots of other wildlife.  We are SUPER excited to get to the park tomorrow because we are going to GET IN THE CREEK!!!!

 
One of our groups made pancakes and eggs last week and also did an experiment with milk.  They had a great time and left with full tummies! 


 
So what's with all the shoe pictures, one might ask.  Or maybe you didn't even realize that the pictures you are seeing used to be shoes...

 
While one group was cooking a yummy breakfast, the other group was hard at work creating shoes sculptures!  They did a great job and some of our shoes are very interesting and practically unrecognizable as a shoe!
 
 
We are looking forward to more fun this week!  On tap we have another trip to Bledsoe - please remember to bring shoes you can wear in the creek!  (No flip-flops - they need to be lace up or Velcro to keep your tootsies safe in the water!)  Students will also be logging on to roblox.com to work on some engineering skills,  playing kickball again - their favorite, and one group will be making duct tape wallets while the other makes fizz inflators and balloon racers!  It's going to be another great week!
