Here are the Grade 2's and 3's during the BOOK RELAY.
How did the book relay work?
Students were put into
teams
.
They had to run and get a
balloon
.
They then had to transport - between their legs - the balloon to their team's
book box
.
They had to burst the balloon to get the
clue
inside.
Then they had to find the
book
that went with the
clue
.
The team that matched all the clues with books
won
.
After
reading
, there is time for
riding
.
After lunch, Toni tries out her new violin.
