Kindergarten wrap up!

WOW. Christian's Kindergarten year is almost over. Just two more days left!
For me, this year has FLOWN by! He has learned so much and "graduated" at the top of his class! He is one of just a few kids in the class that knows ALL his sight words! He has also learned a lot of science, coming home using words like photosynthesis.
Saying things like, "Chrysalis is the coolest stage of metamorphosis, mom!"
My reply, "Ah, yeah. Can you tell me about how that works again?!"
Seriously. When I was in Kindergarten, kids ate glue and colored all day.

He know a lot about money too! (That's my boy! Ha!)
He knows which President is on each coin and what's on the back of each coin too.
Amazing.

He came home one day and told me about President Abraham Lincoln.
"He was shot while watching a show, mom."

He has computer lab at school, which is his favorite class!

He is also very good at math. Mrs. Rogers said he does not need "manipulatives", such as blocks or fingers to do addition or subtraction. She said, "It's like he already knows how to do it in his head." Christian gets that from his dad. I was always impressed that Jim could calculate tip on dinner in his head, while I flumble out my "tip chart" or my calculator on my phone. ;)


We are so proud of our big boy!

So here are some fun pictures from his Kindergarten class!

Christian's class took a field trip to the Gentry Zoo a couple weeks ago. He had so much fun!

Christian and his friends!

Christian came home Friday with his school yearbook and class picture!
He had a great time looking through his yearbook and pointing out his favorite teachers and friends!

Christian had a fun class! Can you tell?!
Onto 1st grade!
