that this little guy is starting kindergarten in just a couple of months. We had orientation at his school last night. I was very impressed and LOVE his school. The principle did a presentation about their philosophies, policies and things. She was very nice, has been in education for 29 years and really seems to love the kids and want what is best for them. Broderick is going to love his school and all the fun, neat, hands on learning they do. The principle said that the teachers really work with the kids to make them a part of the learning. For instance, one class this year found a bird's nest on the playground and they were really into finding out what kind of bird made it. So that classes math, reading, science, and all their other learning was based around birds. Very creative and exciting! I was very happy to learn that Broderick would not be expected to sit at a desk for 2 hours and do worksheets and listen to the teacher. We all know that is not him. He will learn how to do those things, but in small doses. I was feeling very nervous about this next phase of life, but now I am very excited!!!
