Last Day of School

Ahhh... the last day of school. All three boys had a great year, wonderful teachers and are now totally ready for a break. We leave for Washington tomorrow, can't wait to see everyone!

Fourth Grade Buddy Readers

Tristan's class and one of the first grade classrooms worked together this year in a Buddy Reading program. Tristan was paired with Phillip, already a friend of the boys, so it was a good match. Every time the kids read a book together they would draw a picture which was later transferred to the t-shirts you see the kids modeling.

The Buddy Reader Fashion show was very sweet. Kids took turns walking down the runway and met up with their buddy at the end of the runway, where they then read each other letters about the experiences they had reading together. The letters were all sweet and full of encouragement to continue reading.

Parkway's First Grade Poetry Night

First grade was a great year for Calvin. He had a great teacher and made good friends in his class. One of the final events of the year for the first grader was Poetry Night. The kids all worked hard, learned and recited their poems and made us all proud.
