As John Andrew Holmes wisely said,
"Never tell a young person that something cannot be done. God may have been waiting
centuries for somebody ignorant enough of the impossible to do that thing."

Energy Drain!

Often children have a hard time not arguing, talking back and/or listening the first time they are asked to do something. Of course, we struggle with this from time to time, even at HO4K. As teachers noticed this becoming a problem they quickly came up with a plan! Students conferenced with teachers about things they love to do! Playing in the wading pool with bubbles was easily the popular answer. Deciding on something we all love to do was not the difficult part. Next, we came up with ideas to make sure that Ms Mary and Ms JoAnn would have enough energy to plan this activity. Students agreed that they needed to work on listening and obeying the first time, so a goal was set! We were going to all do our best!

It took 2 weeks, but WE DID IT!!!! Wow, we have learned how to be better listeners and got to have a fun day full of bubbly fun!
