When I picked Clara up after school she already had most of her homework done, so after she finished up her reading we spent the afternoon making candy bar puppies. They were a hit, for sure.
In fact, she sent a couple of them with me to take to Mason to celebrate his performance this evening with all the second graders at his school in their Title One program – songs about Charlotte’s Web, and then they each got the book and a set of questions to be answered after they and their parents read each chapter. And everyone who answers all the questions gets to have a Movie Day at school and watch the Charlotte’s Web movie. He was excited – and goofy as usual. His web is pretty fitting.
