Today Was a Safety Day

We learned a lot about safety today.  When Karen came in for our Roots of Empathy session, she taught us all about safety.  We learned about the international symbols that are used to let people know when a container contains things that are dangerous (flammable, poisonous, etc).

Then, right after that, we had a fire drill.  The kids were AMAZING and took it very seriously.  We talked about the importance of getting out of the building quickly and safely and then meeting together in our class meeting spot on the gravel field.  The whole school was on the field in under 3 minutes!

I also took some photos of some of the awesome (I mean awesome!) hundreds projects that have started to come in…the creativity is incredible.

Then, this afternoon, one of the kids taught a lot of us (me included) how to make bracelets with little elastic bands.

Tomorrow is our 100th day of school (can you believe it?!?!)  I think we will probably not have enough time for sharing tomorrow, so we will do "p" sharing on Thursday.
