News and videos


This morning I helped with reading groups in Tess's classroom. I try to do this once a week. I love seeing her in a classroom setting. Today I also stayed for fruit break and news time. This week the kids were asked to talk about a way to improve the school. Tess suggested we add some tree houses.

As we were wrapping up I looked out the window and spotted an adorable green parrot with a colorful belly. Tess pointed it out to the class and we all went out to admire it in the tree. 


It turns out it's a rainbow lorikeet like this one below.


Speaking of Tess and reading, she just made a big leap in reading. It brings me so much joy to hear her. Here she is reading a book that Emily was reading at the beginning of the year. 


And here is Emily singing a song from school. I love hearing her Aussie accent. I notice it most when she sings since she's working so hard to mimic her teachers.


And now, after eleven long days, Daddy's back!
