I didn't post a blog yesterday because we called all of our families, did homework, and practiced for our show. today was a fun day! We started off our day with a 3 minute retreat. Starting our day with God, keeps us in a routine and keeps us thankful, mindful, and present. We then made thank you notes to the school for their hospitality and for being so welcoming. After, we talked to the 2nd, 6th, and 7th grades about ourselves. It was fun answering questions the students asked, and we were much more comfortable around the 6th and 7th graders. Miss Gabriel showed us a new silly dance called "form the banana!" At first, we were a little apprehensive, but then we started to like it. The song even got stuck in our heads! During recess, our new friend Millie showed us how to make origami swans! It was so fun to learn! Noah, another new friend, joined in on the fun. After recess, we played soccer during gym. When we got back, we had a 10 minute meditation. Our show is looking and sounding better and better every time we practice it! Miss Gabriel told us the future with a fortune teller she made. We formed the banana one more time and hasta luego, it was time to go!
