Ms. Sapelly, thrilled that one of her students loves "eighties music," dove into her pile of LPs and took a handful to Gilmore. She made photocopies of their covers, and the student was really excited...but he has yet to include them in his 'hands' project!!!
Two students, caught up in the excitement of a sports event, took the class time to create lovely green silk headbands. One featured a cd cut in half with beautiful writing on it, the other a feather. They wore these around and showed them to their friends upstairs. Ms. Sapelly photographed them before they left for the game. Another student used a pile of black yarn and created an amazing hand, the lines of the yarn reading like veins, with some strands spilling outward into space.
Principal Klein visited us, but seem concerned about the lack of students sitting in the class...and the few that were walking the hallways. Ms. Sapelly realized that three were absent, one excused for math extra-help, another ran to get her purple knitting yarn, and the other two were upstairs...so, six students sat deep into their work! But, she realized, she only started with nine students for the day anyway!
All turned out well, and we look forward, cautiously, to Thursday...
