A very creative child.



I'm very proud of Amanda, who is in the fourth grade now. The teachers have been encouraging them (students) to be more creative. They have already done a project related to science, social studies and art in general- and all the children have done a fascinating job. Just today they show cased a variety of the best works that had won the Young Artist Award @ a Barnes & Noble store in Bolingbrook, and there was also a book fair that gave back 10% to the school.
Amanda's foil ballerina, that was a young artist award winner.( 4Th graders had to do a sculpture relating to a sport)



I liked this picture for the crazy hair. ( it was done by Kevin, don't know him or what grade he's in , I just enjoyed it.)



the gymnast, done by Brittany.

Jackie had been busy creating as well, Her class/team was in charge of making origami jumping frogs and name cards in a different language for multi-culture night. and I just wanted to say I'm glad she had this experience and I'm proud of her.
