2015-16 School Year Highlights

Oh, man was this year fun.  The boys had lots going on, as always, and did great at school.  Here is a quick recap of some of the year's events:

Fall Festival- so much fun for everyone, really.  Treats, games, prizes, costumes.  They loved it all.

Science Night:  This is the night where the kids who did science projects get to show off their displays to parents and students.  This year the boys each did their own project.  Beckett learned all about Garter Snakes, and Asher grew some killer crystals and compared them.  

Valentine's Day:  Okay, so I think they've officially deemed this "Friendship Day"  at school to be more PC, but I'm old school, so Valentine's Day it is.  Anyway, they still bring in 'Valentine's', so what's the big deal.  Sigh.  Here were this year's valentine's...so fun and Star Wars-y.

Reading Clubs/Parties:  Each year our librarian sponsors book clubs for the kids.  The younger grades read a set number of Caldecott Books and do reports on them.  The older grades participate in 'Land of Enchantment', in which they read a set number of books of different types (Non-Fiction, Fiction, Poetry) by local authors.  Both boys participated this year and were able to go to the parties.  Beck had a medal and a treat, and Asher had a pizza party...parents get to come to both, so yay for me too!  I'm proud of them for doing more than just what's required in the classroom and reading is always a plus.  Good job boys!
