Scientist in School

Yep it is that time of year again where the scientists come out of the wood work.  This year we were studying different types of science in kindergarten and I spent Thursday afternoon in Mylee's class.  I was helping with the paleontologist center and all I could think of is Ross from Friends.

We dug in sand, made our own fossils, looked at different types of fossils and did some crayon rubbings.  I always have a great time with the kids when they learn new things and love that little twinkle in their eye when they discover something new.  Mylee sure has some smarty pants in her class!!

Here is Mylee's fossil:

 

 

And then the following day I received a very sweet thank you note.  Mylee's teacher always makes it a point to thank her parent volunteers, but this time it was something incredibly special, because this time it wasn't just her saying thank you!!!

 



To watch some of the kids struggle with writing their names and then to have them all included on this card made my heart leap and cheer for each of them.
