Open House and Spring Sing

A couple weeks ago was Dallin's school Open House. We had a nice time checking out his classroom, and seeing all the work he did throughout the school year. His map was on display, along with all his classmates' maps. There were a lot of very clever maps made. But I was sort of partial to Dallin's. In my opinion, it was the best of the bunch. :D




He had on his desk, a big book that his teacher made for each class member, of some of the projects they made each month, and what they learned. I thought this was such a thoughtful keepsake. It was really appreciated on my end, as it has saved me a lot of time in trying to put one together. lol



After checking out all the fun stuff in the classroom, Dan, Sierra, and I went outside to wait for the Spring Sing performance. Each Fall and Spring, the elementary kids perform songs for all the parents and family. It is so fun to watch. The kids are such cuties. It was too bad we were so far away, I couldn't get a good picture of Dallin singing. Plus he had a taller kid right in front of him, and I had a tree I was trying to shoot around. So in the picture, you can kind of see the top of his head. Thankfully the school is selling DVD's of the performance. So we bought one of those, in the hopes of actually seeing him.

Dallin's group sang the theme song from "A Bugs Life", and one of the songs from "High School Musical". The theme this year was Saying Goodbye, but not in a sad way. Because half the school (including Dallin and Sierra next year) will be going to the new elementary school that is just down the street from us. This school is actually just a few streets down from the school he is at now, so literally the two schools will be neighbors.

The new school is definitely needed, there are over 1000 students this year! We are looking forward to the change. And the option of walking to school if we feel like it. Plus Sierra is super excited to be starting Kindergarten, and being in the same school that Dallin is in.
