Moroccan Dress Day

Friday was Moroccan Dress Day at school. I'm very proud to report that it was my kids who remembered that it should be that day and so essentially we were the ones to get it started. I guess my legacy of liking to have fun days at school is just continuing! :)
Everyone looked so cute all day in their jelabas and keftans. The only problem was it was really hot that day due to the fact that we were getting winds off of the Sahara so it made it a little warm wearing several layers of clothes. There is a certain amount of freedom in wearing a jelaba, because no one can see what you are wearing underneath. I felt like such a rebel wearing a tank top to school, but no one could tell because I had my Jelaba on!

Sarah, I loved your pictures of the desert. That must have been an incredible experience. I am glad you took all those pictures. I want to show them to my world geography students. They are beautiful.

Hashuma alik!! Wearing a tanktop?? That's so culturally taboo! You wouldn't even do that in the desert! You rebel, you.
OK, so is it just me, or does this picture look like an otherwise-ordinary 4th grade class taking a photo, when all of a sudden some random girl from the funny farm wanders in and decides to get in the picture?? Freaky.... but atta way to go, m'girl!! We all love you and miss you even though you look as crazy as can be!! Just a real quick SHOUT OUT to my little jelaba princess with the best darn blogspot there is.... Here's to you, m'luv..... :) :) :)
