Yesterday,we did a lesson in our character development phase. It was on manners and politeness.  We had the kids stay downstairs , while Leslie and I discussed and prepared upstairs.  We discussed the books, decided to have them practice  acting out situations, like how to properly answer a phone or door. The kids were really responsive to setting the table.  We had a large bulletin with a drawing of how to set up your plate, spoon, fork, napkin, knife and cup and so the kids could follow it. They did this and then a few kids went downstairs came back up and we acted out how to properly greet them.  Then, we were able to really greet some new members.

Today, I walked Megan through threading the bobbin, loading the bobbing, threading the needle , all of which she actively participated in.  Then, her and I sewed a strip of cloth to be used in a game we are having on Predator and Prey.
