So Many Adventures!

It turns out that the Clubhouse is really a jumping off point for adventures of all kinds! Today, the maps were drawn again, and the whole class got involved as the boat went through a dangerous jungle. Here's an excerpt:
"Oh no Maggie! I think we're lost!" David declared.
"We are in the dark dangerous jungle! We need to get to the brown X! See the map?" Maggie said, "We are the captains on this boat!"
"Hey Captain!" David said.
"Where are we Captain David?" Maggie asked.
"Oh no! I see orange eyes behind me!" David said.
"Its a monster!" Maggie said.
"Hey Matthew! Our map fell down!" David called to his friend who was watching from the top of the climber.

Katie put on a hard hat and joined Matthew on top of the climber. "We are the captains!"
They played for almost an hour, with all the children in the class weaving in and out of the play, picking up threads of the adventurous play. It was delightful to watch their blossoming play skills!

We had TWO special guest readers today. First Katie's mom Michelle read Diary of a Worm and Tacky the Penguin at Morning Meeting.

Later, Miranda's dad Jonathan read Ladybug Girl, What Miranda Sees, and Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus. It was so much fun hearing these new and favorite stories!
