Day 6

Today was another great day, with some wonderful weather. In our morning choice period, a lot of kids helped out with the shelter, while some stayed and did arts and crafts on the porch. Some gathered and identified plants with Judy, and others went to the pond to observe and catch some aquatic wildlife. The shelter is really coming together now, the walls are being constructed, and the roof mats are almost all completed.

We had a great lunch, with more games of capture the flag. Then we split up in the afternoon. Some kids went up to weave more grass mats and pick wild strawberries in the field. Some kids continued work in the woodshop, painting and finishing more projects, and others made windsocks with Allie on the porch. Everyone got to pick their own windsock color and personalize it with a variety of designs. There are some pretty good looking windsocks, and the projects are coming along quite nicely in the woodshop.

Remember that Wednesday is Pond Day!!

See you tomorrow,
