Dinosaur George and Family Night

Yesterday was a big day in the Forest! Not only did Dinosaur George set up an incredible exhibit for us to tour, go on a scavenger hunt in, and learn lessons about, but we ended the day with our families at our annual Leader in Me Family Night! 2nd Grade and 4th Grade buddied up to cover Habit 6: Synergize. We wanted to stick with a Dinosaur theme since we were all so excited to see and learn from Dino George earlier that day! We created a game called CAPTURE THE DINOSAUR where friends and family members could synergize to trap little dinosaurs under cups and create towers with cups around the larger dinosaurs. All you had to do was pull the ribbons around the cup at the same time as your partners to grab, lift, and drop the cup to trap the dinosaurs inside. It sounds pretty easy, but when the cup fell over and you couldn't touch it with your hands it became more challenging. :) An incredibly artistic student in our class helped me create a poster for our game (see the picture below!). Having Dino George, fun games, friends, family, and yummy food trucks all over the school sure made for a really exciting day!

Thank you, HH, for helping me create our poster!
