Dear Mulberry,
This morning I overheard a conversation in the sandbox. Amanda had a big heavy shovel. She dug a hole at the bottom of the slide that had been moved into the sandbox. There was a root, and the conversation was about how to get the root out.
I don’t know why you wanted to remove the root. Different people offered different ideas. There was discussion about how tree roots are strong. Finally, someone suggested digging around the root to get underneath it. Amanda dug some more.
The root came free enough to grab hold and tug. Someone did. The root gave way with a POP!
Love,
Teacher Michelle
