Today we had a super, mega-fun, Friday Fun! Not only is it the last day of Spirit Week, but it is also our jogathon! It was the perfect morning for crafting and cooking!

We did our first sewing project of the year – squishy squash! Students did a whip-stitch through a piece of orange minky fabric. I had pre-cute 6-to-8-inch in diameter circles and marked each one with a series of black dots on the reverse side. Students used these black dots as a guide on where to place their needles. We got through all the sewing without a single pin prick! Thank you so much to the FOUR parent volunteers who came and helped with this cute sewing project.

In the kitchen we made egg boats to celebrate Columbus Day. This is a quick and easy recipe that the children made themselves. Here is the recipe:

 

 

 

 

The final activity was painting owl stained glass window decorations. These will look perfect hanging in our back windows in preparation for Owls in Wonderland.
