Kinder

Everyone says kindergarten is the new first grade. It's hard to remember as it was so many years ago for me.  Logan is truly enjoying his first year at Oak Forest. Mrs. McWilliams is incredibly organized, patient yet firm, and always planning an exciting project. The Halloween project consisted students rotating from pumpkin station to pumpkin station.  They took notes on measurement, flotation, color, and taste. They have one ancillary class a day and Logan's favorites are art, computer, and creative movemet (yoga).

Of course, hIs absolute daily favorite is recess.

They receive a weekly homework folder on Monday's and are consistently tested on sets of site words. Logan finished his kindergarten popcorn word list this past week and he received popcorn and a Coke. He was elated and we were proud parents. We try to stick to a consistent routine on school days. Brian and I both will read 

Every day he comes home talking about a seemingly random topic with such intensity. Yesterday's consisted of a request for exactly $33.00.   He wanted to buy Lego books from the book fair and his friends Markee and Mia both said he needed exactly $33.00.  Other hot topics include items brought to lunch, back packs, water bottles, and how to play freeze tag. Five is a fun age.
