One of my sisters came to school with me today. I gave her the option of staying home, but she said she wanted to come along. We packed her a lunch and ate a nutritious breakfast before leaving. At school, almost every single kid who walked in asked "Who's that person sitting at the lab table?"
She was very useful! I had her correct the spelling tests and the 7th and 8th graders' history tests. She also finished an art project example for me. And she read a book. Oh, and she played the Adjective Game with us during English and also the Spanish Vocab game (aka- the Tap Game) before lunch.
At the floor hockey tournament, a little kindergarten girl asked, "Is that your daughter?" A 7th grade girl came over and asked, "Is that your friend?"
It was kind of fun to have her around during the day. It did make my 5th graders go a little nuts having someone new around. We could turn it into an incentive though... one girl had a ton of energy and asked Ms. J if she thought Ivy liked it. Ms. J said, "I think she'd like it more if you were a good student and listened to Miss H. and me." Score for Ms. J!
We ended the day in Mrs. M's room practicing for the musical. Mrs. E introduced the Butterbraids Fundraiser by letting us sample them. Yum! Right after practice, one of the 5th graders asked, "Miss H., will you buy a Butterbraid from me? I'll bring the packet on Monday." So I guess I'm buying a Butterbraid! I wonder if I'll be able to eat it all...
