Pokemon
Pokemon Crystal game on Norman's computer
Legos. Always Legos. Today she made a car for all the Lego animals to ride in. She said, "You didn't know animals could drive, did you?" I said, "No -- it must be a crazy car!" And she said, "No, it's a car in cartoonland!"
Checking our "travel registration"(?) to make sure we were eligible for tickets to her play.
And rather the biggie for today -- she was in a play! She's spent the last 3 months attending a theater class one day a week. They did lots of games to increase control over their own bodies (like Red Light Green Light and Statues), learned stage directions, and created their own characters and made up a plot for their (5-10 minute) play.
Lucy did amazing! The character she came up with was entirely original, she spoke up clearly and wasn't at all shy, and was just all around delightful. She also watched the other two classes' plays, including the teenagers' Shakespeare mashup, which she seemed to enjoy despite it being, in her words, a little too long. She's already said she's excited to take the class again in the fall.
Here she is, introducing her character. (She also came up with most of the costume.)
