Day 82 - Let it melt!

It was a sunny day here in Quebec. Some of our classes decided to head outside a bit early to get some fresh air and exercise. Students were walking, playing soccer, throwing the football around, climbing the Spiderweb and yes, you guessed it, watching the snow melt. This drain is in the middle of the asphalt in the backyard. All the melted snow ends up here. This area is a kid magnet. One of my students asked if she could take pictures so I handed her the camera and off she went. Jade took some good ones but I liked this one because it speaks so loudly of the anticipation for warmer days. It also has a timeless quality in that it could have been taken a year, five years or ten years ago. It might even conjure up a few memories for you.

Day 245 - Jungle Bunnies

Another hot day but the kids seemed able to play hard just the same. This piece of equipment is called "The Skywalker". They use it to climb, hang, glide, and even sit (There's a chair behind the climbing wall.).
Other students were playing soccer, 4 corners, climbing on "The Spiderweb" or spinning on the "Super Nova". Of course there were those who chose to hang out in the shade chatting with friends.
Here's to playing with friends and learning new things.
