From the Gym to the Classroom

Our class is learning how to juggle. We love to juggle. Mr. Drendel is teaching us how to become great jugglers.
We hope to show you how we juggle.
We have been practicing a lot.

Here are the steps you will use to learn how to juggle.

1. First, take the green scarf and grab it with your fingers. Then, pinch the pink scarf using your thumb and pointer finger.

 2. Next, move your arm in a small circle, inside your body.

 3. Now, let go of the pinched scarf.

4.  Then, you let go of the scarf that you have gripped.

5. Finally...keep going!

Mr. Drendel has been working hard at showing the students how to follow directions. So we have turned it into a "How-To" story.

But before we could write... we had to practice. :)
