It rained today...

...which can only mean one thing! Indoor recess. I believe indoor recess is just as much of a punishment for the teachers at it is for the students. I know they would rather play outside and personally I would rather them go outside! 

But us humans just don't control the weather so what you get is what you get and you have to make due. Since becoming a 4th grade teacher I have noticed a few strange things that I didn't see last year as a 5th grade teacher. The 4th graders are very odd at times and still enjoy playing immature games during their recess time. Today was NO different. I had recess duty the 4th and 6th grade were stuck in the gym for a 30 minute time frame. And whatever will they do??? 
 Leave it to the 4th graders to find something odd to do in a gym full of basketballs and kick balls.

One of my students spotted this on the stage...  


I couldn't say no!
 I don't know how many kids I had running around with these circles on their heads, arms, and legs. You would have thought I just given them a million buck the way they were acting with the circles. They did successfully create some very tall towers with the circles and I was able to snap some cute group pictures of the class! 

I guess I won't be dreading indoor recess as long as these keep my students attention!
