climb, declare, hot lunch

After a morning of climbing...IMG_2896IMG_2899the Brightworks kids got back to work on their declarations...DSCN0944DSCN0945with some hot lunch and a surprise visit from one of our Mendocino naturalists, Foli!DSCN0949IMG_2916IMG_2915The kids have been working diligently on their proposals and the results are stunning. Each child, working in pairs or independently, has worked so hard writing to defend their projects using persuasive writing, timelines, and the board proudly displaying gorgeous handwritten or typed declarations is getting more covered every day. The bands are working hard to support each other's process by sharing resources and information and experiences. We are so positive that this is the best Expression phase yet!IMG_3078IMG_3080IMG_3081IMG_3083
