Playing on the primary side

Friday was a big day with our recorder concert. After the performance, we took our music stands back to the music room and turned in our recorders and the books.

On the way back to Room 8, we passed the primary playground...and the primary students had just left for the day.

"Hey, Room 8? Do you want to play awhile on the primary playground?"

Oh geez...you would have thought I had told them it was Christmas. They hooped and hollered...Ashley even hugged me screaming, "I love you Mrs. J!!!" I almost titled this post, 'Cheap Thrills'... but I didn't.

The bars were the first big hit...
"Mrs. J.... take a picture of me!' I must have heard this 200 times! I told this group I couldn't see their faces..so they switched positions. Jacob, Ashley, Kaia, and VanessaAshley is hanging on...but it looks like Kobe bit the dust - literally!Oops! Looks like I spoke too soon. Ashley also bit the dust...on top of a couple of guys, Austin being one of them.Spegi tried out his swinging-on-the-bar talents!As did Wasey, Brittany, and Sarah.SarahRiley and Marseya tried a new piece of equipment.Austin and Kobe followed.Summer decided to climb up... as high as she could go.Brittany made the move to something different. There were different kinds of bars to hang from, to glide across...Ashley built up some momentum going across the rings...Kaia, well, I'm not sure what she was doing...except just hanging around!

It was time to take some group shots before heading back to Room 8. We took 2 serious ones...


and then 2 'funny' pictures...or 'crazy' pictures...
It was a great fun Friday in Room 8.
