student of the month & an award


Karsen recently won (a major)* award. Her school participated in the "Together We Can" awards. Students could choose to submit a creative idea of their choosing that applied to their theme. Karsen chose to submit an acrostic poem in the literature category. Here is it.

*post-holiday reference to A Christmas Story. Anyone get it?

Karsen was also recently chosen Student of the Month at her new school! She had her picture displayed at the entrance foyer of the school with the following information under it. It was a fill-in-the-blank format that she completed.

I realize this is not the most exciting post, and I haven't written in a while.....I just know that life seems super busy right now between the kids' schedules, my school, and everything else in between. I am making it a point to write this down, capture it, remember it* Because these are the sort of things I don't want to forget. 
 
*Another reference...this time to a song....anyone know it? Forgive me, when I am tired I get a little tangential. Ha!
