 Our class is ready to do the activity "magic hand".  We follow the movements of the leader's hand with our whole body.  

 We're playing multiplication Top It with cards.  Each player turns over two cards and multiplies them.  The player with the higher amount gets to keep all those cards.  

 Steve greets Jacob during our morning meeting.  Steve taught us how to say good morning in Thai.  Thank you, Steve!

 We made sure to get in our 30 minutes of continuous activity this week by walking and playing capture the flag. 
Capture the flag definitely had everybody moving!

 We are learning about volcanoes and we worked on creating a travel brochure that persuades people to visit Volcanoes Around the World!
 Chidy practices using the SmartBoard by completing an addition problem.

Using the SmartBoard takes some practice, but Kayli acted like an expert when she showed us a subtraction problem.

 During our activity Who started the motion?, the person in the middle has to try to figure out the leader.  You have to be very observant!


 A praying mantis climbs on our brick wall.  

 The imagination playground lets us be creative to make so many things!
