School Happenings

Well a lot has been going on at school this week.


First off Chloe came home with her first red note-yep that's right a red note. She got in trouble because she kept talking even though her teacher had repeatedly warned her to stop. She was so upset. She was crying and didn't want Tanner to know hopefully that will teach her a lesson.
Second Chloe's class had a big Cinco De Mayo Festival since they are studying ancient Mexico. Complete with pinatas and a sombrero for each kid. She had a blast.
Then there was an assembly today at the school. Chloe's grade was in charge of it. Chloe had a part and she did such a good job with it. She was so excited to participate and will tell you that she memorized her part in one day. This is what she had "Abraham Lincoln was killed in March 1861 but he never stopped fighting for what he knew was right". At the assembly they gave out awards for the student of the month. The trait for this month was Patriotism-Tanner received the award for this from his class. His teacher said it was because he was the first to pass of his Give Me Liberty requirements and he was always so excited about working on it. Some of the requirements were memorizing the Gettysburg Address and The Pre-Amble, Being able to Name and locate the 13 original colonies and 50 states, knowing certain facts about different presidents etc., etc., etc.
Oh yeah and I am done with my Spring Classes-just waiting for the grades to post-come on already!
