Theater

Today's schedule was all mixed around... We went to a play at Nicollet put on by the MSU students. After we got back to school my kids wanted to analyze the play and talk about what they liked and didn't like. The 7-8th graders too! We started class with an analysis. Overall thoughts, not one of their better performances. They didn't use mics, so it was hard to hear. It was super short, about 20min, normally an hour. The play had a TON of plot holes, although there wasn't much plot to begin with... Good things: the dancing was excellent. All of them were in sync, had great rhythms, and it looked cool. Their singing sounded decent, also very in sync (lyrics-wise, they didn't have much to work with with the songs). 

We got back to school earlier than anticipated, so we did a few rounds. Lunch was later than anticipated, so we did recess beforehand and bumped math 15min later. Bell practice was okay. I had to kick a kid out for throwing a pencil across the room (he tried to eat one of my class plants during social studies just before that... yikes). And the rest of the day was pretty typical after that. 

Tonight: bible study!

Whole 30 update: Yesterday I could add gluten back, so I had G over for supper. We had bruschetta on fresh bread (so tasty!). Then I made noodles from scratch (surprisingly easy) and he handled the sauce.
