Both teachers have really embraced Benjamin and taken him under their wings. They have both expressed to us and to him directly how much they appreciate having him in class. He really has had a stellar year.
But back to Dino Day. So, Karen, his English teacher has been doing a unit on Dinosaurs and it all culminated this week with Dino Day. There were poems and readings and songs and skits. I rarely have seen Benjamin this excited about ANYTHING, Ever! He knew the entire line up. He knew his part and the rest of
the kid's parts. He was so excited. We made "dino snacks" which turned out to be chocolate muffins with volcano gummies on top. We couldn't find any dinosaur gummies and he figured that there were a lot of volcanoes back in the dino days so we just went with it. He helped with the muffins every step of the way and when finished he stepped back and said "Mom, I think they turned out PEFECT!" Melt my heart! He was so excited!
Marty and I show up a few minutes early and the kids are still working on a few things. We eventually make our way in
and find a seat and are treated to the sweetest show. He was SO into it. I wish I could post some of the video but photos will have to do.
