The photo here makes me happy and sad at the same time. It represents the first Christmas celebration at school that I wasn't able to help with or even attend, for elementary school, and it was Violet's last one.
I love her teacher, but she didn't want parent helpers at the class party. And she doesn't send photos of classroom activities, as most of Violet's teachers have done.
Here, Vi is exchanging gifts with her kindergarten "buddy." I lucked out that another mom and I were chatting, and her daughter is IN the kindergarten class that Violet's class is buddied with. She graciously took this photo for me, so I can use it in Violet's 6th grade yearbook.
We gave Violet's buddy beyblades (a toy), and he gave her a very nice art kit. She was very appreciative!
Signs of the season - the trees on my favorite Summit walk are again decorated for Christmas!
On Wednesday night, Violet's KidZone/Pioneer Club group had a bake sale to raise money for charity. These two cuties sold a lot of cookies!
On Thursday, Violet's class performed their hip hop routine, as the end of their hip hop unit. A special teacher had come in weekly for the last few months to teach them.
But Violet was lucky - her group did one routine all together as a class, and then her group of four kids did another short routine on their own.
When Cora did it, the whole performance was MUCH longer, and the kids were called up individually in a sort of "dance off" fashion.
