The play was constructive and there were rounds of applause for the moments of conflict resolution that requires no teacher input. We started looking at pictures of Dr. King knowing his birthday will be celebrated later this month. In the same way he looked at himself and the world, we are looking at ourselves and the world.

Our Wednesday “Green Day” Class hosted the second of two Christmas programs. We had an hour and a half to get everything else done before joining our special people in the sanctuary. We changed our schedule today and ate snack early today. This means we had Circle Time early today. This means we did our projects and outside play earlier today too.
