The View From our Window - Second Grade Observations of Playground Progress

Last week,  we saw the workman make big holes and a big mound.  Then a cement truck came and filled in the holes with cement and put cement on top of the mound in a wooden base.  They dug a ditch outside our window and now we can see a pipe.  They pulled out the tar path that used to go from the school door to the door by the nurse's office.  They put flags all around. There is also tape on the trees and a fence around to make sure people don't come in.  Andrea even came into our classroom to see the progress when she visited school!

This week,  there was not much happening in the beginning because of all the rain, but we noticed there is something covered by a big white sheet.  We think it might be a big mound of dirt that they didn't want to get wet.  Then when it stopped raining, they started putting in boulders!  Big dump trucks came and dumped them on one side where the bottle house used to be, and now it looks like a wall.
