Nature's Classroom-  Day 2
 The Ultimate Challenge.  Students learned what it would be like to not have use of their thumbs; their thumbs were taped down.  The students were then asked to try and peel and orange.
 This proved to be very challenging!
 Next students were asked to try to draw a picture of a house using their feet.
 Again this was VERY challenging!
 Another activity some students enjoyed today was candle making.
Students passed the time playing "I will bring..." until they could add the next layer.

The router was fried out by lightening the weekend before our arrival; they have just replaced it!  I hope everyone has been able to follow the twitter feed.

Images from our First Day at Nature's Classroom:

 Here we are enjoying some recreation time!
 Volleyball, Ping Pong, and more!


 Dining Hall!  Ask them about ORT and the plates on the ceiling.
 Skits; sorry the lighting at night was not the best.  The kids' performances were great!
 Time to end the day with a campfire and s'mores. YUM!
