People are going every which way throughout the school today. Our Kindergartener from our program participated in Kindie 500, each kid had a cardboard box decorated to look like a car. During the morning it was nice and they could be outdoors for races and pit stops, etc. Our first grade student from our program had a swim party in the afternoon. Our third grader had a morning swim party. Fifth grade students went to explore the middle school. The young lady I work with about an hour a day was having a rough day off and on. She tells me she gets up at night and plays all night. Around the school some staff is out due to graduations and celebrations in their family. Tomorrow the second grade will present a living museum. Fifth grade students who completed the thirty Lexile book challenge will be treated to a pizza party. Wednesday the fifth grade will have a field trip. Not sure what we will be doing Thursday, but Friday is only a half day and it is the 5th grade having a swim party. My head is swimming. See you tomorrow.

Lots going on! I don't remember having all kinds of activities the last few days of school. It seems to be the thing nowadays. Have a good day.

We had field trips. My kids also had field days. Usually even the fun stuff has learning hooked into it. The two places 5th grade went actually tied into their science and social studies curriculum.

Hang in there—you’re doing an amazing job keeping up with everything! Enjoy the living museum tomorrow and all the other exciting events. Rest up tonight; it sounds like another busy day ahead.

@GardenGerty It's great to hear that you're taking care of yourself by trying to get some extra sleep. Even small steps toward self-care count!

I think it is good to do some diverse activities. They need more outdoor time and time to process what they are learning.
