1st graders are BUSY PEOPLE. Let me just tell you about the pile of papers that has accumulated in my kitchen. Every day, I pull a stack out of Alyza's backpack that is the size of Mt. Washington, I kid you not.
Every so often, as time allows, I rummage through the pile, seeing what she is learning, and how she is doing. The other day, I discovered that Alyza has been learning about spiders.
I had to pause for a moment, when I saw the following worksheet...
I thought it rather interesting that although the instructions clearly say to draw just a spider in the box, she also included a person screaming, so I asked her about it.
Her response...
"Oh, That's YOU Mom. I made you screaming..."


That's awesome. At least you were doing something normal in her picture. Just wait until the day you are figured doing something really embarassing like, "That's my mommy picking her nose." LOL
