Last week, V2 graduated from Pre-K! This graduation was a hoot!
The kids were awesome, and I have to tell you, those teachers rock!
There was not one child of those 20 or so kids that did not fully participate!
If you have ever been to any event where kids are spotlighted, you know this is no small feat!
They did sign language, spanish, counting, dancing... oh, the dancing...
They pulled out the sunglasses and did one of those dancing circles- you know, the ones that you see on TV where everyone is around clapping and they take turns going in to do something special for a couple minutes!
It was great! I am so proud of my Kindergarten boy!
and I only got a little teary eyed once... :)
Event number 2 was last night... our whole V family, and Mamaw K, traipsed the mile jaunt down to the school in the 85+ degree weather... (
because there is never enough parking and you usually have to park a mile away anyway...) to see one of the funnest shows ever! It was V1's third grade musical. They did songs from school house rocks... talk about a trip back in time. And those songs are still awesome.
Although during Interplanet Janet I kept thinking "Isnt this inaccurate now? Didnt they determine Pluto wasn't a planet anymore? It was demoted from planethood... that means there are only 8... anyway..)
V1's class did Interjection... they got to act out a football play on stage while singing... of course sometimes the fun of acting trumped the singing and we were really listening to the voices on the CD, but it was GREAT! Tons of fun! And pretty organized for 7 or 8 classes of 20 something 3rd graders... that's a lot of kids for one music teacher.
(V1 is in the red had and blue shirt.)
So, as V2 says... It was a super awesome week!
