Witches and Broomsticks and Wands, oh my!

What a wonderful day! To keep with our theme of Harry Potter, the room was littered with famous quotes from the books. It was so awesome seeing some of the girls come decked out in their Harry Potter clothes. For the morning activity, the girls went outside and played Wizards, Elves, and Trolls. To play, teams would huddle up and decide which thing to be. Then they would line up facing each other, and on the count of three they would take on the act of their chosen thing. Whichever team won would chase the losing team and try to tag them before they reached their safe zone. The objective was to get as many players onto your team as you could.

After the activity was over, the girls went inside and began painting their canvases for their LilyPad projects. The whole morning was spent on their paintings. These girls are soooooo talented! I couldn't produce anything like they are producing. And then it was lunch! The meal consisted of red and green enchiladas, chicken tacos, beans, rice, chips, and salsa and queso. It was delicioso!

When lunchtime was over the girls went back to the room to learn more about HTML, taught by the lovely Samira. After learning how to program tables the girls got started on their own projects. We're so excited to see what they come up with!

Blog Prompt: If you could create a spell, what would you name it and what would it do?
