We are up to our necks in Fall in Alaska. The temp this morning was 36 degrees and while it was a beautiful sunny day, the leaves are halfway down and the flowers have died. We're also moving right along in school with no issues so far... Here's the recap...
Alex-is so excited to have sports after school. He's into cross country running right now and runs 2 miles every day rain or shine outside. He loves to run and is very competitive. He's getting praise from the coach for listening to the coach's comments on style and technique. The big meet comes up in 2 weeks and he's very excited about it! He's definitely tired at night and getting homework done is a chore, but so far he's managing. He really wants to do sports...
Sammy-is more academic and volunteered to be a Conflict Manager at recess. If you know Sammy well you'd be laughing at this one. But he studied and took all the tests and received his badge and key and is one of just a few third graders that volunteered. He loves having power to let kids into the building to go bathroom and loves to walk them through problems. He claims it's a little boring as not enough kids get in trouble to need his help :)
Katie-in Kindergarten they are all about filling buckets (being nice to others). So she's constantly filling buckets of others. It really fits her personality because she loves telling people I like your shirt, can I help... She's well known by many kids and staff in the school because of her adorable personality...
