Tuesday January 24th: playtime after school

Today was the first opportunity we had to go hang out with the kids after school, when everyone is on the playground having free time. We took some Frisbees and small balls and jax that were donated as part of our co-op giving tree, and the kids LOVED them! We all had such a great time talking with them, doing clapping games and magic tricks (Michael) and taking pictures.
Michael receives an enthusiastic welcome when we arrive.


Hugs all around for Teacher April and Teacher Michael and Teacher Jess

The kids love the Frisbees that our co-op families donated. The little girl, Pearl, on the lower left-hand side, is the same child that we had in our supporter thank-you cards--just one year older.

This was a great change of pace from the necessary discipline of the classroom. We were able to play football, teach the kids how to play jax, and just learn more about each other.
