It has been raining in Bahrain! Not just the 30 seconds of rain we get a couple of times a year, but steady, sustained rain. It has rained more in the last three days than in the last few years combined, so in a country with no sewer or drainage system, there have been a lot of flooded roads and buildings (including the top floor of my house). A lot of schools were closed today, but ours remained open. Good thing it did, because I had an amazing day with my kiddos!
We used Model Magic for the first time this year. The kids loved it so much, they said it felt like playing with marshmallows and they kept thanking me for giving it them. We've been working on our Health and Nutrition theme, so they picked their favorite fruit or vegetable to mold their Model Magic into and then they used pencil tips and marker lids to make indentations to make it look more like the actual fruit and vegetable looks.
We made them in the morning and then in the afternoon we used watercolor paints to paint them. I think they came out looking great, and the kids were so excited for me to put them out in the hallway for their parents to look at during conferences tomorrow.
