One giant leap

Happy Leap Day!





















An extra day in the calendar begs celebration.  First, we piled outside for a Leap Frog Relay Race.


























Next, we held plastic frog races.

Finally, we returned to the classroom for investigation of the special Leap Day M&M's, generously provided by my friend Carolyn Leap. 

The children sorted the M&M's according to the message on the back ("LEAP!" "Happy Leap Day" and "2.29.2012"). 





















They organized their data in bar graphs.
