Gavin - Shakespearean Festival

I keep thinking that I will find these favorite pictures; full of color, vibrant with celebration. Gavin was a juggler, the 6th graders had a feast, Shakespearean style, some spectacular entertainment from that period. It was amazing.

Stay tuned for some future snapshots; for once they have been archived right away, the luck. And I even printed about 100 of them for thank you cards to give the volunteers. Crazy time; with hand rolled, burned edge invitations; shields and swords; fancy dress-ups. Of all the pictures to miss posting....

Well, if I don't get to it, just around the corner will be Clarissa in the 6th grade...oh boy, and then, possibly, a picture.

The Pie!

Alyssa, 1st grade, I choose this picture because

it shows respect for my family and my things.

(Mrs. Johnsons class, our favorite too)

Sam, he wrote: I feed animals when they are lonely.

We put them in a cave until we get back from the store.

Then I take care of them.Clarissa's Hall, 2nd/3rd split class with Miss Lloyd

Appearances - "Respect"

This mirror reminds me that we need to respect each other,

not just outward appearances but what is inside.

We love our school. These are some samplings of the art work from this year. The kids all made masks. See the pictures of the masks being made. What an experience. I think I spent 50 hours at the school helping with those masks. Oh, boy.
