ROUND TWO PROJECTS

TURN LYRICS INTO A SONG

• BPF Founder’s Note:  What adorable munchkins!

COLLABORATE WITH THE 5th GRADE CHILDREN OF OUR ANJALI KHALSA ENGLISH SCHOOL IN INDIA!   The children at the Anjali Khalsa English School in India wrote lyrics for the “Best Things in Life Theme.”  They need your help.  Please develop the music and perform the completed song. “Best Things in Life” Sleeping in the corner on the mat of faith, Dreaming of the world where I am not afraid, Playing on the fields, rushing down the streets, The magic of the book, daily I perceive, These are the best things in life… I wanna stay here for a while, For this is a world to hope and shine, for these are the best things in life, Dancing in the rain with my group of mains, Making fun of people, passing down the lanes, Jumping from the stairs, swinging in the chairs, Spending hours calming down a friend, Sharing love and likes for the favourite band, These are the best things in life, I wanna stay here for a while… I am here with you for this moment, just laugh, Forget about all wories and glories, just laugh, These are the best things in life, I wanna stay here for a while…

BUILD A FORT!

Project suggestion from Julian, Rye, NY Julian’s Fort Materials:  Cups, Cardboard, Tape, Glue Your fort: 1.  Your fort must have both an entrance and an exit. 2.  Your fort must be able to easily break apart 3.  The materials must be light or soft, so that if the fort collapses, the materials won’t hurt any living creature.  No wood or nails allowed.

• Big Picture Foundation founder, Ms. Tamalonis, made a fort for her college thesis.  Do NOT do it her way!  Her fort collapsed.
