“Today
at Math Workshop, my group and I did a CGI. problem. After CGI, we read a
really weird book called Thunder Cake,” said Jasper.
The
Sea class had fun learning games from China last week. This week, we are moving
further east to learn some games that Native American children have been
playing for thousands of years. We have a shortened week due to Friday’s field
trip, and Kevin Hulin will be a guest teacher on Tuesday to teach us the
globally popular game Texas Hold Em’! I’ve been so engrossed with playing the
games that I haven’t been taking very many photos…
La Sea Class tenía juegos de aprendizaje divertidas de China la semana
pasada. Esta semana, nos estamos moviendo más hacia el este para aprender
algunos juegos que los niños nativos americanos han estado jugando desde hace
miles de años. Tenemos una semana acortada debido a la excursión del viernes, y
Kevin Hulin a ser profesor invitado el martes para enseñarnos el juego popular
a nivel mundial Texas Hold Em'! He estado tan absorto con jugar a los juegos
que no he estado tomando muchas fotos ...
We
are nearing the end of Workshops; our last day will be Friday, May 27, so the
next two weeks will be a lot of summative (end of year) assessment. Please help
your children get enough sleep and have plenty of food packed. Several students
came to me last week asking for more food since their lunch boxes were empty by
12:00!
Estamos llegando al final de los talleres; nuestro último día será el
viernes, 27 de mayo por lo que las próximas dos semanas serán una gran cantidad
de sumativa (fin de año) evaluación. Por favor, ayude a sus hijos dormir lo
suficiente y tienen un montón de comida para llevar. Varios estudiantes
vinieron a mí la semana pasada pidiendo más comida ya que sus cajas de comida
estaban vacíos de las 12:00!
Susie
has worked with the Sea Class on their performance for the Parent Education
Night (Tuesday, May 24). The students will go on stage at 6:00, so please
arrive on time and wear colorful shirts!
Susie ha trabajado con la Sea Class en su desempeño para la Noche de Padres
Educación (Martes, 24 de mayo). Los estudiantes irán en el escenario a las

Our
Games field trip is this Friday! We will leave school and walk down Water
Street to the County Building, walk along the levee, and cross River Street to
Mythic Games. There, we will rotate through four or five games chosen
especially for our group. Afterwards, we’ll lunch and have some free play at
San Lorenzo Park. The lovely people at the Santa Cruz Lawn Bowling Club will
give us a little history of the game, and demonstrate it. Then, we will get a
chance to try it ourselves! We will end the day by walking back up Water Street
in time for 3:00 pick up. I don’t know who has signed up to walk with us yet,
but if you’re interested in learning some new games, please contact Michelle Easter
or myself.
Nuestro viaje de campo de juegos es este viernes! Vamos a salir de la
escuela y caminar por la Water Street al edificio del condado, caminar a lo
largo del dique, y cruzar River Street de Mythic Games. No, vamos a girar a
través de cuatro o cinco juegos elegidos especialmente para nuestro grupo. A
continuación, vamos a tener un poco de almuerzo y el juego libre en el Parque
de San Lorenzo. Las personas encantadoras en la Santa Cruz Lawn Bowling Club
nos darán un poco de la historia del juego, y demostrarlo. A continuación,
vamos a tener la oportunidad de probarlo nosotros mismos! Vamos a terminar el día
caminando hacia atrás hasta la Water Street a tiempo para recoger a 03:00. No sé
que ha firmado para caminar con nosotros todavía, pero si usted está interesado
en aprender algunos nuevos juegos, por favor, en contacto con Michelle Easter o
yo mismo.

with the beat in the following fashion: Tap the stick (or bone) on the ground

3.
When the music stops, the player holding the bone gives the bone to
the player on his right, then leaves the circle, joining the rhythm makers and
keeping beat with drums, bells, or hand clapping. The winner of the game is the
last child to remain in the circle.

Meeting
Theme:
Pima
(Southwest)
VAPUTTA 12-30 players, usually boys
Equipment: one small pebble
Play: The players are divided into teams and a
leader is chosen for each. The teams line up facing each other a few feet
apart. A goal is marked off about fifty yards distant form the first player on
each team. The leader of the team that has first turn walks along behind his
players, carrying a pebble or some small object in his hand. He pretends to
place it in the hand of several players as he passes along, and actually does
place it in one hand. When he reaches the end of the line, the leader of the
opposite side guesses which player had the pebble or object. If he guesses
right, he takes the object to hide in the hands of his team. If he guesses
wrong, the player at the far end of the line having the object runs and jumps
over the upheld leg of the man at the head of the line. This moves his side one
man and the length of the jump nearer to the goal. The same leader hides the
pebble once more and the play continues. The team that fools the other team the
most and can jump the greatest distances will reach the goal first and win.
Stick Game
4 popsicle sticks or tongue depressors
12
counting sticks (toothpicks)
Permanent marker
1.
Mark one side of one popsicle stick with a
design. Leave the other side blank. Be creative with your designs.
2.
Mark another popsicle stick with another
design, leaving the other side blank.
3.
Mark the remaining two popsicle sticks the
same, leaving the opposite side blank.
4.
Either two players can play or two teams can
play. Each player plays against the person sitting across from him or her.
5.
Use the 12 toothpicks for keeping score. Place
them in a pile between the two players.
6.
To play, hold the four stick dice (popsicle
sticks) in your hand, and then drop them to the ground.
7.
Count your score according to the number of
points for each stick combination. Take that many counting sticks.
8.
When the counting sticks are all taken from
the pile on the ground, the players should begin taking them from each other’s
pile. The first player (or team) to earn all 12 sticks wins the game.
