April

At the very beginning of April, we had an Easter egg hunt with a bunch of our friends at a park. The kids all had a great time and it was a lot of fun.

 

Also at the beginning of April, we celebrated Brinley's second birthday! I can't believe how big she's getting, so cute and so smart.

 

 

 

 

Jasen's GATE class held an egg drop contest, where each kid had to construct something to hold an egg and keep it from breaking after being thrown from the roof of the school. They got extra points for using recycled materials, and also for using as few pieces as possible. Cahl and Jasen found a thick piece of foam, folded it in half, and cut out a small spot on the inside for the egg to snugly fit into. Then they tied the foam together tightly with a piece of string, so his entry only had 2 parts- 1 piece of foam folded to squeeze the egg, and 1 piece of string to hold it. And Jasen won the contest! He had the fewest pieces, and his egg did not break!

At the school awards, Jasen recieved the A-B Honor Roll, and the Attendance award. Tristan also recieved the A-B Honor Roll, the Attendance award, and the Citizenship award.
