Nature Detectives Day 5

After Gratitude Circle, we practiced their original play "The Guardians of the Batteries" and made a filmed version. Then we took a snack break and finished our adventure to find the last piece of the time machine. The journal led them to the greenhouse where there was a large puzzle everyone helped finish and a sheet with questions like :How many ants? How many dragonflies? Which helped open a red box. In the box were 20 words. Everyone took a word and together the message told them to look for a stone wall and color red. We found the box to hold the crystals, connect the clock to and put the leaves in. Everyone collected ebony spleenwort to send to the year 2039 and helped cure the disease.

Then we ate lunch and finished any final details on their automatons.

Next we went to obstacle course and the creek. Lastly, they performed a live version of their play for parents.

Sorry I forgot to take pics!
