Magic Carpet

A story about Billy and Sally, two good friends

mc1


Sally said, "Let's go on an adventure and darted off!" Billy said, "Wait for me!"

mc2

Sally found a cave and entered; Billy followed.

mc3

Sally saw a pool of water and a vine hanging over it. She jumped onto the vine, swinging, then took a deep breath and dove into the water. Billy did the same.

mc4

They swam to a cave where a genie was tied up. "Untie me and I'll grant you a wish." They did. Surprise!

mc5

The two friends rode the magic carpet back to their treehouse, and swung on their swing, fondly remembering their journey together.

House 2

House:
"Six friends wanted to build a house"

House 3

It started raining, so they covered their tools with a tarp.

House 4

It was time to raise the main beam overhead.

House 5

And now lift those walls into place.

Just a reminder that any outside play is "credit" for my class. I want to appreciate the efforts of parents and children of finding fun in movement around your house. Just a snippet of what Mr. T and his kids are doing.
