It was a great day!  We started the day with a November IQ activity.  We all learned some new things about November and different things that happened this month.  The residents thought it was “interesting.”  Then we exercised with some stretching and then twirling ribbons while we listened to 50s music!  They had a good time with those and a resident said “I’m really having fun with these!”  We were all ready to rest our arms after a while.  We started kicking the ball to each other while we talked about what all our favorite Thanksgiving foods are to eat.  Next, we all watched more Johnny Carson videos!  Everyone was cracking up laughing and someone said, “He’s a nut!”
Grace Kelly is the star of the month so we watched a biography of her this afternoon. Everyone enjoyed it and thought it was fascinating.  Jennifer was here for Music Safari. They began by listening to a relaxing song while they played rain sticks.  Jennifer played the piano and they sang many songs like, “Let Me Call You Sweetheart” and “Side By Side” among others.  Many residents knew just about every song!  It was a good time had by all!
