b is for band aid and blood

my journal work plans started with this sign and boxes of band aids to give those finger muscles a work out:


but almost as soon as we started, our journal work evolved to adding faces and blood to cover with the band aids!



(also, please notice the legos tucked under the journal here. it is a general practice of ours to allow children to take the toy or item they were using and are not done with if the child is transitioning to a teacher directed activity)

so if any of you heard that a teacher was the “bleeder” or “blooder” or “owie maker,” now it might make more sense!
