We played zombie tag, submarine tag, and ice cream cone races in PE today. We also got to go to Art and we had to do different tasks to get to know each other better. Then we did some Reading and STEM activities. We tried to build a house of cards (harder than what we thought it would be). Then we built 3D shapes with gum drops and toothpicks. The kids really enjoyed this because they got to eat them.
Galatia High School Cross Country 🏃♀️🏃♂️
We had a great first day at summer school. We had a walking field trip to the library. We read some books about dragons and made a dragon craft. We also made campers, marshmallow art that we got to eat, and made some explosions with diet coke and mentos. The kids had a blast. We hope that more of you come and join us this week.
