Basket Ball Video

This is a link to the basket ball video we watched together. We were talking about The Power of Yet and that if at first you don't succeed, then try and try again. After you have watched it, you can post a comment. A comment could be something like, "He was really serious about practicing," or "Even though he didn't win, he...." Comments such as, "This is awesome," aren't very interesting.

Being creative!

After reading the book The Tin Forest, we made our own forest out of cardboard junk. When Aayden brought in a tube that was too thick to cut with scissors, it was time to bring out the saw!
