Seems kinda funny - yet strangely fitting - to follow up my last post about Brady's classroom antics with one about Parker.
Parker recently came home beaming from ear to ear with pride. The teachers in his PreK room had apparently implemented a new system of reward whereby kids were given a small card each week. As they demonstrated positive, good behavior, they were able to earn little smiling stickers throughout the week. Whomever had the most stickers on Friday would earn the Student of the Week certificate and be invited to bring and share a favorite lovey, book or game from home the following week.
Parker takes great pride telling me each day that he "stayed on green." And on the rare occassions when his stoplight has moved down the color pole, he has come home honestly remorseful and sad.
So when he hopped in the car with his big yellow certificate, I thought he was going to burst! He excitedly told me all about it (though he was a bit more shy on camera.)
And the following week he insisted on bringing his 5' pet snuffed snake to school - and according to Ms. JaNeah, it was a hit!
Keep on rollin' Parker!
