Theme: Warm in the Winter!

 Happy New Year, Everyone, Everywhere!

I hope everyone has been able to enjoy the darkness of the Northern Hemisphere and cozy up with some tea and citrus!

In the school garden, things look Wintery - cover crops are sprouting and the soil is wet from the rain we've been getting in the Bay Area!



*This week, we are making "Garden Movement Containers," where we creatively come up with garden-themed movements and pull one out at random for everyone to do.

To make your Container:

- Use any container (box, bag, jar, etc)

- Cut paper into small pieces

- Write (or draw) your own garden-themed movements and place them in the box

- Choose one and enjoy some movements during these cold Winter days!



I will compile the "master list" of garden-themed movements and add them to the blog as each class invents more!

In the meantime, try 20 "trunk twists," 5 "caterpillar crunches," or 25 "jumping jackfruits!" Maybe some "water cycle arm circles?"

Have fun and stay warm!
