Step 1: Think & share
When I was a little girl, I loved making paper chains. My daughter Lily made paper chains out of red & green wrapping paper. She made it so long it went all around our Christmas tree with loops left over. She strung it over our lanai door. It kept her busy and quiet for a long time. =)
Lily's chain was a decoration. You can make a COUNTDOWN chain to countdown to a BIG event. You count how many days away your birthday or Christmas or New Years is and that's how many loops you make. Choose an event YOU want to count down to. Mrs. Colte chose Christmas. Mrs. Petry might choose Hanukkah or New Years. What will you count down to? Step 2: Listen to a story or twoStep 3: Make YOUR paper chain & your binary bracelet

Step 1: What game do you like to play?
In the webex the other day, Mr. Json said we should think about OUR favorite games to play. Take a few minutes & think about your favorite board game or carnival game (not video). Click on the Padlet link here OR click the square with the arrow on the padlet below. Read what other students like too!
Step 2: Research...
Mr. Json told us it would be a whirlwind of helpful hints & cool creations, & it was!
He talks quickly!
Look at the slideshow below to see some of the ideas he shared.
He said, after you have a game in mind, think of characters. Who will be in your game?
Then, think about the materials. See if you have those things in the house.
Soak up his ideas & let YOUR imagination go WILD! (well, not too wild)
