The first big snow and outdoor education

Yesterday, a few of the students were so excited about the snow and the new mountains we have in the yard that they wondered if we could play longer outside. We played most of the afternoon and had a blast! We climbed, balanced on snow bridges, dug holes, made homes and lifted big boulders. We had several cooperative games and dramatic play centres emerge such as Minecraft, neighbours, door to door sales people and of course Frozen. At recess, students were delighted to find their old friends who have moved on the grade one as well as siblings.
