American Education Week

 Hope and I got to visit Faith's classroom today as part of American Education Week.  Hope loves to visit.  The girls made place mats for Thanksgiving.

 They also made macaroni necklaces.

We always love to visit Faith at school.

Poetry Tea

James' class hosted a poetry tea this morning for families to come and listen to their recitations of poetry.

As you can imagine, the girls were such a quiet well-behaved audience. We left early.

How Many Oreos?

Spencer's class invited parents to come and watch their Oreo stacking activity today.

The girls ended up eating their project.

Spencer is dancing with his class--hard to tell, but yes, he is dancing.

Whoever invented red-filled Oreos couldn't possibly have a one-year-old.

Their entourage. Whenever I take the girls to school, a crowd of kids gathers around. They ooh and aaaah over how cute the girls are. Until Faith kicks them.

Education Rocks

Tonight the third grade presented their Education Rocks program as part of American Education Week.

Hope was enthralled and clapped after each song.

James' cheering section.

The kids love to show us their class after their performance.

James and his buddy Tyler.

Hope is obsessed with stuffed animals.

Faith is ready for school, and believe me, there are days when I'd love to send her.
