first time for everything

This week Ashtyn brought home his very first (times 2) homework assignments!! His first assigment was to read this homemade book, that he made at school, to 5 different people. Those "people" can include even your stuffed animals and pets! After he reads the book, Ash has to do a "book report" where he will draw his favorite part of the story and turn it in to his teacher! So far, Ash has read his book to Maddox and soon he will read it to mommy, daddy, his stuffed puppy and another stuffed animal friend!

Ash also received an assignment this week where he has to choose an insect, learn four facts about that insect, make a poster and then on Friday he has to present his poster and facts to his kindergarten class! Monday night, Ash sat down with daddy and started his project. He chose an "ant" as his insect. He and daddy drew a large ant in the middle of his poster and then listed the ant facts Ashtyn chose. Ash also did some special art work on the poster including an ant carrying things on his back, an ant hill and some scribbles in puff paint!

In case you were wondering, Ash will be presenting the following facts to his class on Friday...

1) Ants don't have ears

2) Queen ants have millions of babies

3) Ants are very strong

4) Ants dig their home in the dirt

Wish Ash luck! He is excited about his very first homework assignment and presenting his poster. He has asked every morning this week if it is time to take his poster to school!
