For more active students, a student aid brought in some juggling balls. Eager to show off their skills, students performed their best stunts. One student asked, “wanna see me do a magic trick?” and showed the ball hovering between her hands. Another juggled, throwing a ball under their leg, “do you know how to do this?”
On the flow of the day, one student explained, “I’m here during lunch and band. I can’t play the trombone right now.” He talked about what else was off-limits, “video games are okay, as long as there is no killing,” painting a picture of what is and is not in the spirit of Ramadan.
When it comes to student projects at the end of the day, not much of the student work goes unclaimed. Many students take their projects home with them, proud to show off what they have made.
