Today was one of those days at school where no one wanted to pay attention. It was the first day back from Spring break and to make matters worse the sun was shining and the weather was just right; not too warm and not cold at all.
Every period I had with my 4th graders they kept insisting we finish our lesson quickly and have free time to play. Unfortunately for them the opportunity didn’t present itself until the end of the day during Science. We finished early and I told them it was okay to go outside and enjoy the weather.
It is so much fun to watch them all playing together on the playground. My three boys always go on the swings and compete to see who can jump off the furthest. And all five girls manage to fit themselves on one tire swing and scream at the top of their lungs.
