Time Flies

It's been over a month since Christopher and I posted. Time flies.

Christopher wrapped up his third nine weeks with straight As. He's done so well this year. I can't believe his only B in the first nine weeks was an 89!

He's enjoying his art class so much -- his basketball piece was in the district art show and received a blue ribbon.

Science and Math are still the top core subjects with him. Social Studies falls in and out of favor based on the day and the project.

His recent Reading "Heritage" project earned him a 100. He started off thinking Petri was a Greek last name so when we explained the Lithuanian background and the fact he was a mix of German, Lithuanian and British from my side . . . he was really confused. Then, throw in African and he didn't know what country's flag to put on the project.

Tomorrow, he begins sixth-grade intramurals at 7:30 a.m. I'm sure this is a way for coaches to see the kids in action before seventh-grade sports. He's kind of nervous, but excited at the same time. His concern is the clothes he will wear.

Only nine weeks of sixth grade to go . . .
