Kinglsey loves school and was so excited to discover there would be set homework handed out every Monday which needs to submitted to the teacher each Friday morning. She has already almost completed all of her tasks the class were given this morning.
The week before last, in readiness for homework, she set up a science lab on her desk.
There were specimen jars with bugs, spiders, beetle and ants collected from in and around the house. Research included studying the insects under the microscope, reading nature history books and googling on the internet. It culminated in the Ant Exhibition and lecture by the chief scientist, Kingsley. The invitation only display required presentation of the flyer pictured above to gain admission. The second half of the week was devoted to the study of dolphins which was a little harder to try to see under the microscope!

I, on the other hand, am excited that KelpieBlossom's teacher is rumoured to NOT give out homework. None so far. Yeee Ha.
That sounds like such fun! I used to create my own experiments as well as dance routines. Poor, long-suffering parents endured it all with big smiles!

Remind me never to sit still too long at your place!
Just wanted to pop over and say that I'm thinking of you and praying for you today. Hope all goes well and S is back up to snuff soon.
