Grandparents Day

Earlier this month was Grandparents day at Connoquenessing Elementary School, where Gracie and Goldie are students.  Of course Ted and I went to see what and how they are doing this year in Fifth grade and Kindergarten.

This is the same school that their mother and father went to. It is a small

country school, with a nice playground for recess

 

 

First we all gathered into the auditorium for opening exercises.

I can't believe I remembered the words to the Pledge of Allegiance!

This is Gracie walking in.



 

 

 

Here is Goldie walking in with her aide.

The children made a circle around us and sang a special song for us.

 

Next, we visited the classrooms. Gracie was in Art.

She is busy painting a paper mache mask that she made.



 



This is Goldie in circle time...either tired or bored!

 

 

Goldie and her aide working on letters.

 

I am holding the paper while Goldie uses scissors.

Gracie's Art class is over, so we went to her classroom.

Here we are getting ready for Grandparent Bingo.

Up until this year Gracie was home schooled.  I glad to say she LOVES school and has made many girlfriends. (She won't confess if she has a boyfriend...she just smiles!)   Goldie was in preschool last year, which made for a nice transition to a classroom full of students.   Needless to say Ted and I had a great morning with our two grand-daughters!!
