Cora took part in one of the 6th grade traditions at her school on Friday: Cro Magnon Day, which culminates the grade's study of early humans.
Cora was eager to dress up, and her leopard-print dress was perfect for the occasion. Add on the vintage mink stole borrowed from Auntie Mel, and Cora made an awesome cave woman.
The kids could choose their own "clans" for the day's activities, so Cora and Jake got to hang out together. Jake is to Cora's right - in the amazing wig.
The first activity involved "hunting" for paper animals strewn/taped all over the playground.
Another activity - another one I helped with - involved excavating a site-in-a-box, with bones, rocks and charcoal hidden beneath layers of dirt.
Cora has always loved archaeology, so she really enjoyed checking out the skull her group unearthed.
Jake was clever enough to bring their bones over to the skeleton, to better determine what they were. I didn't notice any other kids doing this among the three class groups I helped with.
The kids had three activity stations - in their own classroom, they participated in a game, and in the third room they did an art project.
After completing the activity stations, the kids had a big snack in the park. Here are Vivian, Cora, Sophia and Violet.
Same girlies, with Cami and Sophi bookending the group.
Such a fun day!
