The First Week of School

 

 

 

 There's so much work to be done in a classroom, so we got started early with a "Job Match-up Game" where all the jobs were posted and a description had to be matched to the correct job.  After careful consideration, we filled out job applications, applying for a first and second choice.  Of course, we had to list our qualifications for each job.  Here are two job application examples:

 

Kellan applied for Pet Care for our 2 hermit crabs with these qualifications that she says make her a good candidate..."I'm very focused and gentle with animals and I get here at 6:30.  Also I know Brownie and Spike very well from Summer Camp."  Her second choice was Door Holder and Greeter with the qualifications of..."I am a people person and I am good at opening doors."




Check out Raymond's application.  He's applying for Pet Care (which, by the way, was a very popular job) and Line Leader.







We began working in groups on Tuesday to see What makes a difficult task easier? or How can you work with your teammates to accomplish a task?  After trying to stack 6 cups using only a rubber band with 4 strings tied to it, this is what we came up with:
1. Focus
2. Cooperate
3. Everyone tries
4. Stay positive
5. Never give up
Here are a few pics and videos to show how much fun we had!
