Gold Rush Days

Gold Rush days was last Wednesday for all the 4th grade.  I got to go and help that day for the festivities.  The day started off kind of rough when the presenters for the gold panning didn't show up, but after we re-adjusted things, it was a fun day!
 In one room, they made these cute dolls.
 In the room I was in they designed a stake to stake their claim and we also made butter!
 In the 3rd room, they saw some slides about the gold rush days and made a leather bookmark.
 They also got to take a picture in their Mining Shack.
It was a fun day and I was glad that I got to help out one last time this year in Calissa's wonderful class!
(PS - It was her teacher's birthday that day too!  Happy Birthday Mrs. Johnston!)
