This week we were so blessed to get to go to TWO of Granddad's basketball games. One was Coaches Vs Cancer. They honored Mom before the game! Sometimes I see Zach and Lorén and I "see" Kris and I. Jax loved watching Granddad's team. He was determined to get a ball for himself!
This week was also Penguin week in First Grade. Lorén brought Flippy, the class penguin home to spend-the-night. She recorded her adventures with him in the classroom notebook. It was neat to see what Flippy did with the other classmates. Lorén concluded her week by doing her very first research project. Lorén not only did all of the internet research and fact compilation, she also came up with a very clever way to display it all. Her thought process was "If I'm doing a research project on Adélie Penguins, I should make a giant Adélie Penguin to show everyone what it looks like." In all, it has been a fun and busy week!
