One is the loneliest number...
...unless you're playing with friends!
I was humming this song one day this week while my class had snack and choice time. Suddenly, I hear "UNO!" and looked up to see a few kids playing the game.
Bingo...eh...uno?
One can be such a lonely number, but when you're playing with friends the dynamic changes. I have a small class, some parents make a case that small classes limit friendship opportunities. But, I have a great class. They include each other, get each other, and are a great group. I wonder what it would be like if there were more of them with more friendship opportunities.
Sure. One can be a lonely number...but playing with friends - nothing beats that.
I'd like a nickel for every hour we played uno with the kids growing up!! Def one of our family favorites!!

ReplyDeleteUno is one of those games they've taken and "improved" in so many ways it nice to play the original version without the bells and whistles; just giggles and laughter. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteWe still play UNO! We love board and card games ... esp. during the long winter evenings! Nice shot!
ReplyDeleteVery creative. I think you will find that regardless the size of class or school, most of us (and kids) make "friends" with a limited group - they're simply exposed to more in the larger settings. Arguably, a small group makes for more intimate friendships.
ReplyDeleteWe love Uno!
ReplyDeleteNice interpretation of the song! I've taught classes of 15 - 16 in the past and this year I'm up to 28. Small class size is the way to go! More isn't always better :)
ReplyDeleteLove that game - have to buy a new one. Great for family night.
ReplyDeleteThat's a creative approach to this song! Made me laugh out loud! I've actually never played this game. I think I'm missing out!
ReplyDeleteGreat take on the prompt! Love this game. My husband and I can get pretty competitive with this game.
