We are holding Activity Days in the mornings during the summer months.
It makes it easier on the families. We can still be consistent in meeting and they still have their day ahead of them without getting interupted.
Our gathering activity was to build this giant tower with these building blocks (kind of like Jenga blocks) as high as they could working together and taking turns. As soon as we took the picture to document their success, they could knock it down. Haha! Look at those feet poised and ready to go. Then we timed them to see how fast they could pick it up and put it all away.
Today we talked about who we respect and admire and why those qualities help make our lives happy and good.
We learned how to write a note of appreciation to them.
The girls wrote a rough draft first on lined paper. Diana and I edited them, and then they got to choose a note card to write the letter they were going to send. Some girls wrote to a friend. Some to a teacher; some to their grandparents; and some to a sibling.
They learned how to address an envelope and where to place the stamp.
They took them home to put in the mail box.
Dani brought some yummy cupcakes.
It was a GREAT activity!
