The Truth Revealed- You'll only find it HERE!

Maura loves to make little printable books like she used to make in Kindergarten. She then reads them to Landon and plays school, etc. with them. Yesterday as she and Landon read on the couch, I was able to catch a glimpse into what goes on in the "classroom". Here she is tenderly providing that much needed one-on-one attention that is lacking in the No Child Left Behind classrooms of today. Dedication. Care. Concern. And most importantly, an attentive student.

Oh my goodness. So quickly the tide turns and the student overtakes the teacher, absolutely sick of reading about Pumpkins and Halloween, and other requirements. It is painful to watch, but with this particular student it is to be expected.


But wait- let's roll the tape again.....take a closer look at the sequence of events - this will teach us all not assume anything 'til we ask BOTH sides of the story :)

Here we see the teacher purposefully lay her book down....

Reaching over, she provokes....

It doesn't take much to get this one going.....

I think he's winning because she is laughing too hard.

There you have it, the truth revealed. At last.
