Classroom with a View

I love looking out my classroom open window.  I feel a lightness of being even though things are crazy right now...outside of our magical world.  Fall leaves blow through the windows and we do a good bit of sweeping at the end of the day.  Every week that provides us the blessisng of meeting in person is a thing of wonder.  It is a treasure box to unpack.  We have a classroom pet named Delbert.  It is a damselfly.

Monday was Monday Math Trail Morning.  They are estimating and measuring  girth in Peace Circle Woods
Picture
This one was 100", but the biggest tree at the Palace of the Pecan King had a girth of 180".  It took 4 people to hold the measuring tapes.  We had our first music class...drumsticks, 5 gallon buckets and rhythm (one of our spelling words. with silent h.)

And now the latest update from today...landscaping.  The sweet smell of cedar mulch welcomes you to the lunchroom.  Plants are set in groups where they will go into the soil.  So many people to thank for all this...Henry and Jamie, Willie, Brian, Mike, Peter, Suzanne, Ruchi, Manish, Donna, Sonia, Van, Ian and Gillian, Brent, Alphonso...I know there are many more.  Thank you all.  For Katie, Sonia and Brian and all the cast of "The Case of the Missing Dragon Kittens," another radical recognition, if I may...it was more than magical...it was so real!  The whole experience spotlighted our community's Human Greatness in action.

By the way, Twix and Trouble say, "Hola. It is warmer south of the equator where they winter.  Do you know where that is?"

    Deborah: I believe children need to have more time in the great outdoors and no time bubbling in answer sheets to prepare for standardized tests.
