We began our day with a kick off assembly for our Bread and Puppet residency, with a focus on community. Immediately after that we had our first workshop with the artists from Bread and Puppet. Students took part in acting out a story about a haunted house. See if your child remembers who it was haunted by! Children then had a chance to become various animal puppets. We will have two more sessions over the next six days. Because of scheduling, our class will not be part of the final performance, (the benefit of this is that we can be completely immersed in the process without worrying about a final product), but you are welcome to bring your child back for this next Thursday afternoon. The official time has not yet been determined.

After assembly, puppet workshop, and health class everyone was ready for some unstructured time. We spent an hour outside making the most of the springlike temperatures, playing chase (ask your child who the chaser was!), discovering really cool rocks that have been buried in ice, and contemplating what might be living in one of the triangle trees. With so much going on it was hard to come back inside!
