A few random things that have appeared in my children’s backpacks lately, that really, really make me smile!
TUCKER
*Tucker made this monster at school, attached at the bottom was a little booklet about this pet monster, where the kids got to fill in the blanks. Here is Tuckers Response (my translation in parenthesis)
My pet monster’s name is: Koky (Cocky)
My favorite thing about my monster is: He is olwas helsy (He is always healthy)
My monsters favorite foods are: 1. Grbit (garbage) 2. Rotin thins (Rotten things) 3. Pinckons (Pine cones)
Monsters love to do tricks. I taught my monster how to: Jump
Just to be on the safe side you should never let your monster: Fly
Because: he cat (He can’t)
You know a monster is sick when: He is in bed.
The best way to make a sick monster better is to: Feed him rotin eggs (feed him rotten eggs)
When you monster is feeling better you should let it: Play.
*Another poem from our little poet, this one titled, “The Jug and the Slugs and the Bugs”. He wrote this at home, and then took it to school, to share with his class and teacher.
So fun to see him writing and expressing things!!
TRUMAN
*Look at this darling little witchy, can you see the broom? I smiled so big when I saw this, and Tru was so proud of himself. (sorry it’s sideways..)
DARLING.
* Being the month of November and everything, they’ve been talking about gratitude at school. The other day he brought this home:
I am grateful for myself.
I laughed out loud. It makes me happy to see his confidence. I think it’s probably okay, as long as he doesn’t get too confident, right?
I Love to see their creative side shining through.
