The new game is a puzzle. It is a map of Europe. To play you need to match the shapes of the puzzle pieces to the shape of the country.
To play along with the “Can Do” Kids, just go to the “Can Do” Club House, choose more games and choose “Europe Jigsaw Puzzle.”
On days like this, mostly all of the boys and girls have a hard time settling in and paying attention.
So here is the word game, a word jumble to be exact, that Miss Pat gave the class to do.
It was the day before a 3-day weekend. The “Can Dos” were having a hard time focusing on school work. Most were thinking about what they were going to do with three days off!
Miss Pat had already reviewed what President’s Day was all about. They spent time talking about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln and all that they did for America.
“Class,” said Miss Pat, time for a math quiz.” Several of the “Can Dos” let out groans and moans.
“That’s enough,” said Miss Pat. “Go to your computers and let’s get started. Today’s math quiz is about the 2x table and adding one.”Why don’t you play along. Just go to the “Can Do” Club House, choose games and choose times table +1.
After recess, Miss Pat noticed that Kathy had her head on the table and was sound asleep.Her table mates were trying not to giggle, but Kathy was snoring so loudly it was hard to hear Miss Pat.
Miss Pat went over to Kathy and gently shook her awake. Kathy woke with a start. ” I was just resting my eyes,” said Kathy. Her classmates started laughing and Arthur J said, “You were snoring, Kathy.
Kathy got mad and said,”Was not asleep; was not snoring!” The her classmates yelled out, “Were too snoring!” Hector even demonstrated how she sounded. Kathy’s face got beat red and her eyes got all watery. She was so embarrassed.
Miss Pat asked,”Kathy, why so tired?” Kathy answered, “The last time I fell asleep in class it was because I didn’t eat a good breakfast. But this morning I had eggs and toast and juice and that is a good breakfast.”
Miss Pat said,”What time did you go to bed last night?” Kathy answered, “I went to bed at my usual time but I couldn’t get to sleep for a long time.”
Orrie started waving his hand madly and saying, “I know, I know.” Miss Pat called on him saying, “What do you know, Orrie?”
“I think I know why Kathy couldn’t fall asleep last night. I saw her take a can of soda up to bed with her. It was the kind of soda that has caffeine in it. it also has lots of sugar.”
Miss Pat asked, “Is that true, Kathy?” Kathy nodded. Miss Pat said, ” Sugary drinks, especially those with caffeine can make you jumpy any time. If you drink them but before bed, well, they can keep you up for hours!”
“What else shouldn’t we have before bed,” asked Miss Pat. Bobby said,” No eating candy.” Annie said, “Don’t take sugary cereals.”
The class all applauded since word jumbles are everyone’s favorite.
