open house

jack









reports grand central in the 3rd grade!
















he was really proud of his "i am" poem!



























with his crazy reading skills you'd think that the writing would have just flowed as well (it was like pulling teeth), however mrs. s has taught him how to use all those savvy adjectives, transition words, and phrasing to spice up his writing! This has been a pivotal year for him... we couldn't be more proud.



































noah is my artist who i am the most proud of when things go his way.... we'll just leave it at that.























































oh the writing! it's everywhere... such a part of this year's curriculum, and i love it! writing should be 2nd nature and its one of the hardest things to teach my children, how to convey their thoughts and ideas on paper in some kind of organized fashion.
























zach





i love that he's so secure he draws butterflies and birds and i'm not sure if the pink thing on the ground is a cat or rabbit or something else..i think that's a bunny cotton tail???




































































































































































this was a guessing wall, clearly it was obvious to us what other child chooses aqua as their fav color?? hard to read but that's what it says! it used to be gold... um...how proud am i that he put "read" as a favorite??? hallelujah!









i love these butterflies they were all different.






































she's quite fond of snakes...little britney

So fun! I love looking back at their projects...and the writing thing...I totally understand. Christian hates it, I'm like "get used to it, you'll be doing it the rest of your life!". What better skill is there?! :)
