The day that...
We Ate Mystery Cake
The first thing we did when we got to our forest classroom was play and build a fire. In this picture, Beaver sat and had to hold on tight. She was holding on to Jumping Mouse's shoulders. He was pretending that the big long stick was a ship with a horn and a steering wheel.
Today we were collecting things that started with the letters 'a' and 'g'. We thought there were no words that started with 'a' but we found an acorn. For 'g' we found some grass and some green stuff. We also noticed that g-g-go outside starts with 'g'.
We are sitting by the camp fire. We had cake for snack. It was chocolate cake. The mystery ingredient in the cake was z-z-zucchini. Deer mouse guessed it.
[One memorable quote: "I've gotta have the recipe!"]
This cake was a treat because we earned 100 alphabits. We get alphabits by doing things that are good, kind and helpful.
After snack we did some work. In Mrs. T's station we brought people to trees and they had to guess what tree it was. The person that was blindfolded needed to hold the other person's shoulders. They felt the tree and the roots with their blindfold on. Then they went back to the circle and took the blindfold off. When we took the blindfold off we found the tree.
In this station, Miss Wetzel handed out the cards and we had to find another person with a picture on their card that rhymed with our own card. We held the cards on our heads so we could find what rhymed with our cards. We read a rhyming book. It was called Fox in Socks and it was written by Dr. Seuss. We sat by the fire for this station.
We shook out the water on the tarp. We were cleaning out our shelter and taking good care of our space. We were doing work. With Miss Wetzel we also tidied up the wood pile.
At the end of the day we did sit spots. When we went to our sit spots we were calm and quiet. Blue Jay noticed that the sky was not blue, it was white. Deer Mouse noticed that more leaves fell off the trees. Newt noticed a leaf falling off the tree and hoped he could catch it. We did not make a leaf pile today. Maybe next week, we can.
The temperature today was 60 degrees. River Otter felt a little warm and cold. Blue Jay felt a little bit not comfy when there were sticks on the ground. Deer Mouse was warm - even kinda hot. He was running. Newt felt that way too.
This is the end of our story of the day. Our blog, pog, frog, fog. log, jog, nog, sog, tog, warthog.
