Children followed a line in the school woods guided by partners. One child had their eyes closed and were guided safely around an obstacle course.

Great skills in empathy and trust were displayed by all children.

We also tried to be a catterpillar. This was fun. Only the two front people could open their eyes. They tried hard to guide the rest of its body safely around the woods.

water pushed up the straw and the Diver became heavy and sank.

I released my squeeze and the water came out and the Diver floated to the top again! 

5th class parachutes

In Ms. Keyes's class we worked together to build a variety of parachutes. We tried out different types to see what worked the best. Some flew very well and others crashed to the ground!
