I’m not sure they had any idea what they were asking of us, but this is what J created:
Yes, that’s construction paper grass at the bottom she cut out.
We were surprised to find this returned in Z’s bag (and slightly crumpled) at the end of the day.

Z: “I didn’t have it in my work folder.”
Oh yeah, THAT’S why I hated school.
That makes me want to bang my head against the wall. But at least this way, you can keep the cloud for posterity. In the meanwhile, I’d keep my eye on this dude (male or female).
