Jackson is in First Grade this year at Bon Lin Elementary School. He has Mrs. Jessica Jordan as a teacher and we absolutely love her!! He has done so well and has learned so much over the course of this year!! This is his first real year to have actual projects to turn in for a grade. We have had quite a bit of fun working on these together!! The first project was to create a leprechaun trap. We were told to be creative and use our imagination. We tried to do both and I think it turned out extra cute!! Jackson was so excited when he came home from school telling me that everyone thought his was the best!! We used a Kool-Aid can and covered it with green paper. Then we created a belt like a leprechaun and put in on the middle of the can. We covered the top with paper and cut slits in it so when the leprechaun came up there he would fall in the can! We covered it with a slinky used for a rainbow, necklaces, light up rings, and coins (all leprechaun favorite things)!! Then we added a ladder!! Everything turned out so cute and it was fun spending the one on one time with Jackson!!
His next project was to create a character using an egg. Then he was to use his character as the main character in his math problems: one addition and one subtraction!! Jackson turned his egg into The Joker!! He did such a great job and was so creative in his word problems!! This Momma is so proud of all his hard work this year!!
