Lucy completed her first school project this week and took it to school today. She had to make a map and present it to the class, explaining everything on it. The project was supposed to be "student produced" (ie - not made by parents!) so when I had to stop and think how to help Lucy do the best job she could without too much pain and suffering, I took a page from my Dad's book of parenting - Everything is better with stickers!! :) We went to Michael's and she picked out something to represent the road, some stickers for all of her places as well as some fun foam to make everything else. She also got a fancy gold sharpie to write with!
Here is her final product!
She had places like "Snowman Mountains" and "Candy Cane Lane" and a cupcake factory and an ice cream parlor. Her favorite place is "Penguin Pond." (Or so she said last night)
Part of her grade was her ability to present her work to the class so she practiced on her brothers.
And as we were putting the camera away, Alex ran over for once last "cheese" face! :)
