all of your troubles are dead and gone

Back blipped from last week...

As usual, Thursday afternoon provided an hour away from the classroom, doing cool outdoorsy learning. I got my class to make Indian string maps; you tie various objects from a place to a piece of string to sort of tell the story of your journey. Lots of fun trying to tie parcel knots and teaching children how to do this! Afterwards, we wrote haikus based on our learning in the wildlife garden that day. All in all, a lovely time.

I'm sure the parents love the hippie education their kids are receiving from me! :)
