Star of the Week

Brenna was chosen as Star of the Week a couple of weeks ago.  This is an opportunity for the kids to share alittle about themselves and their life.  They get to bring home Frankie the Falcon (their classroom mascot) who visits with them for a week.  They also put together a poster that tells about their life, family, hobbies, and likes.

Brenna was thrilled to bring Frankie home and she faithfully hauled him everywhere we went each day and he slept with her every night.  We worked hard on her poster, as she carefully chose each picture that she thought shared something special about her life.  On the first pass you selected more than 50 pictures, which we negotiated down to just under 20.  Finally, Frankie comes with a journal which "he" makes an entry in at the end of the week describing his visit with his new friend.  Needless to say this turned out to be more homework for Mom than it was for Brenna.  Here's how our week with Frankie went.

Helping make pizza rolls for dinner and playing games with Pickles!

It took Moose alittle while to warm up to Frankie but Pickles seemed to like him!
