Today the weather was great again. We decided again to begin the day with a morning full of the outdoors, working on our boats and shelters. We first went out to look at the shelters that had been started last week, and let me tell you they are looking GREAT! Most involve walls of pine boughs, and many have a high quality carpet of moss that is quite comfortable. I sat in one and I swear I could sleep on that moss!
The boats are looking great too and I hear another few took their maiden voyages. After lunch we played our customary games of Capture the Flag, then moved on to quiet time. Quite time again was quite peaceful; some kids drew, while others practiced tying knots. In the afternoon, Judy took some students on a field investigation in which they took a closer look at the life forms living and growing there. Allie taught a group water coloring and Leslie ran the woodshop. Although we are running low on wood, we still have plenty of ideas. Some projects were finished today and others made great progress. I hear that the field investigation was quite interesting and the watercolors equally entrancing.
Remember everyone,
- Tomorrow is Pond Day so pack a change of clothes, a towel, and a bathing suit
- Also we will be making Stone Soup, so bring an ingredient to share (see the email from Rene)
Great day, can’t wait for tomorrow!
