I have been busy with life that I haven't had much time to post, although plenty has been happening. These entries may be a little outdated, but better late than never.
Marin's class went to the Art Museum to study portraits and then they went to the central Library to get library cards, have story time, and check out a book. The kids were so excited. It was hard to contain the excitement of 20 plus kindergarteners. We took the city bus which was great for Marin's class but not so great for the rest of the people commuting into downtown. We pretty much took over the bus. The art museum was quite a challenge for some of the boys in the class. Although we did not stop to discuss some of the other exhibits, the little boys did not miss the nudes that were on display. They had quite a field day discussing the various anatomy that they saw. Each group got to see different portraits. Our group saw some really interesting examples. Marin had a good time, but I think she preferred getting a library card and checking out her first book with her own card. I swore at the end of the day that I would never again do an all-day field trip again. It wore me out.
