Due to the Snow Day, we have reschedule GSPD to Wednesday, February 12th!
RES Third Graders will be participating in Global School Play Day all day on Friday, February 7, 2020. We'll be spending our entire day engaged in "unstructured" play -- board games, card games, building, making, creating, outdoors...you name it! We won't be on technology!
Here's a quick TedX video on the decline of play:
So, on February 7th...students may bring (clearly labeled) board games, card games, dolls, blocks, trucks, cars, racetracks, empty boxes for building/creating, puzzles, blankets (for fort building!), and more! If it doesn't use technology (computers/screens/apps), and it is appropriate for school, bring it!
We'll spend the day immersed in play...we can't wait!
