20 times this month students have fallen off this little balance chair. The routine is now make sure the faller is ok, enjoy a laugh / celebrate another fall, then the faller gets to either update the counter or pick someone to update it for them.

They voted on Inside Out & Back Again by @ThanhhaLai as our next book, purposely voting on a shorter book so they can have another meeting/celebration before winter break.
