Kindergarten Graduation 2011!!!!!!

Here's a pic of T from the last day of school. They got to wear their graduation tshirt and jeans, instead of their uniform. From what I could tell, real learning ended sometime last week, and since then they have been working on their end of the year show.

It was FABULOUS!!!!

T had two solo parts and remembered all of her lines.

The play was "Magical Me", and lead by the new music teacher. Poor Ms. Gonzalez and her accordian retired last year after over 30 years of service, and the new young teacher took over. A breathe of fresh air has blown in the place, which is a bit of time warp circa 1953. My fav was the class singing sinatra's New York New York, but with all the words changed....If we can make it there, we'll make it anywhere, its up to you, First Grade First Grade!

Here is T's final project that we were working on, can't really tell from the pic, but glitter was the major art medium used. I can't say enough about glitter glue, i.e. glue with glitter already mixed in. No muss, no fuss! ...and no glitter all over my dining room floor!
Here is T receiving her diploma. I'm majorly bummed that I unknowingly cut off everybody's heads. Its my only shot, too!


Here is T with posing a final time with her teacher Mrs. Cabezas. T learned a whole lot, and had fun doing it. Rumor has it that next year is when "real school" starts in earnest. No more playing or messing around.

Looks like we shall be practicing our math skills a bit and our reading skills, to make sure that we don't fall behind.

I'm off the rest of the week, and we're headed up to dotty's condo to go swimming.

Congrats to my little first grader, Mama could not be more proud!
