Pinatas

There's at least one first layer on all the piñatas! My kids had a blast getting messy with the glue and newspaper. Well, most of them did. A few didn't like getting their hands dirty. We used up all the water in our classroom sink in our attempt to get clean. 

Again, gorgeous weather, so we did our papier-mâché outside. It was just a little hot. My kids complained about the heat and the wind, but the problem-solved and set up their tables in the shade of the playground in the morning and the shade of the classroom in the afternoon. The wind was a bit trickier to outmaneuver. Some used sandbox trucks or their glue containers to hold down their newspaper strips. One group set up shop in the tucked away back area between my classroom and the gym. Man, I love it when they problem-solve!
