This morning, we got up early and got ready, then headed upstairs for breakfast. Here is the sign from the breakfast board this morning.
After breakfast, we came downstairs for our morning session. We talked about making choices in our lives, and played several fun games about making choices. We played "Let's Make a Deal", where we were offered $1 or the choice of an unknown prize behind one of three doors. We also played "Would You Rather", where we were asked to decide between one of two "interesting" choices (for example, would you rather be really smart or really attractive?) Then, we headed outside and played beach blanket volleyball and gutterball, where we had to work as teams to achieve our goals. After that, we talked about the different pressures that we face regarding making good decisions in our lives. After the conclusion of our morning session, we headed upstairs for lunch and then back down to go to the candy store. We enjoyed visiting the candy store and the Mast General store, and playing outside. Now it's free time, and we're playing games, relaxing, and getting ready to go hike to the waterfall.
Love,
The 8th Graders (Eryn and Bryson)
