This past Friday the first graders at Sisters Elementary School got to show off some of the fun things they've been learning and doing in PE and in Music. We started off in the gym and they showed us their HUGE parachute and the cool things they do with it.
Mr. Lamont the PE teacher said, "We'll take four steps in and then everyone goes under and we'll make our mushroom." Once they were all hidden under the mushroom we could hear Mr. Lamont say, "OK class, anyone have a good joke?" We hear Porter's voice pipe up, "Yeah. Why did the bumble bee get married? Because he finally found his honey!" All the parents laughed - it was so cute! Porter told us that wasn't planned - he just thought of that joke!
We got to play with all the fun equipment in the gym too -
and there was a lot Porter wanted do and show to us.
I think he was the most proud of his chin-up skills.
That kid held it there for quite a while -
I think his chin might have helped him just a little!
We then went to the commons area where the kids sang us some songs, played some games, and showed us their new found skills on the "glockenshpeel" - no this is not how it's spelled. Three of the kids were chosen to lead their class in their school song - Porter was one of those kids. I asked he and his good buddy Ryun why Porter was one of the leaders and his friend said, "Oh it's because Porter just does a really good job."
So fun to see all the fun things you're learning Porter!
Way to go buddy!
