Board Game: Following Directions is its title (this makes me giggle, because the game is playfully inept, but the students create their own directions to make it more playful).
Tiante-It's good enough. Just be quiet already.
Michael-Gawd!
Martrell sings Michael Jackson quietly-Don't stop til you get enough. He's walking around. Whooah! HE shakes his shoulders. Hoo-hoo-hee.
Erieyon-Woowee. I'm too tired for this, Martrell.
Tiante slaps Ra'ell. They both continue to have amiles plastered to their faces though.
Amitri is communicating to Destiney that it's boring to talk about people behind their backs-this is reflective of a conversation I had with them yesterday.
ANOTHER DAY
Scrabble is out.
Maliyah-No it's my turn. We got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
Meanwhile, Kayla is walking around to different groups in the room. She's not trying to participate in their games, she's dancing and singing and getting in their faces.
Amitri says she made a booty snowflake.
Javonte is acting as a snowman from Avatar.
Xavier sings-Oh say can you see?!
Mshayia-Can you help me (with snowflake cutting)?
ANOTHER DAY
Kyle is visiting our room from Ms. Young's room. He was my student last year and children in our room know him well.
Kyle plays hangman-I need something more challenging, please.
Maliyah is playing Scrabble-Look I made two words out of grape: grape and ape.
Amitri-I know I'm running with this snowflake, but I don't even want this.
Samirah-See, she spelled calendar and those are all her guesses I wrote down.
Javon-No, you have to go like this...
Kyle and Xavier-Can we jump? This is jumping for Jesus.
Javonte-I know how ya'll make it (the more intricately cut snowflakes).
