Each club studied, experimented and Hnally presented a little profam to the rest of the group of what they had learned. In the fall we also gave two short plays for the little school. At Christmas time we had another play called The Animals Christmas . We spent quite a lot of time making Christmas tree decorations made from pine cones, leaves, milk weed, pods, nuts, etc., which were decorated and painted gold and silver. Since Christmas we have been studying Pueblo Indians. We made a pueblo in the room out of cigar boxes and asbestos cement. The children also made and painted clay Indian figures, animals, people, etc., and planted cacti to go around the pueblo. We also made copper bracelets and Indian bowls. We are going to have an Indian play and make our own costumes. In addition we have two rabbits in the room. We feed them alfalfa, oats, carrots and lettuce. We have taken excursions to the zoo, the Historical Society, and the Field Museum. We moved up into the second floor. Our project was for each person to make an animal out of plaster and put him in his correct habitat. While we were supposedly resting in the gym, the girls made balls out of blanket fuzz. Sometimes someone would fall asleep - that was very funny. Entering: Tom Stromsen. 13
