Today I'm thankful for: #1- This get up we wore to have the kids play Quiditch. Pretty stellar! LOVE LOVE LOVE it and the kids love those hats and know we're serious about having a fun time.
#2- A quest for the kids. Another one of today's activities was a search for magical items that had been enchanted to float near my ceiling all week. Peeves that tricky ghost stole them hid them all over the school. The kids had to solve math and language puzzles to find out clues that led them to the missing item. They were awarded house gems for each one they had found. They are so involved and engaged for over an hour and all groan when we tell them their time is up. I love to watch the 3rd graders and 6th graders work together.
#3 - The Hogwarts school song. We have taught the kids the Hogwarts school song and we invited Colleen on of the school's secrataries to come out and hear them sing it. She was so great asking the kids questions about all the activities we'd done all week. It was great and the song is hilarious

#4- Roommate night. We have what we call roommate night on occasion. Tonight's activity consisted of going and seeing my classroom all decorated for the magical world. Look at the awesome Harry classes Raegan found for all the kids to wear. We tried on some pairs pretty sure we look just like Harry here. Kerri battled He Who Must Not be Named with one of my student's wands and gave a little love to Harry too. So fun.
