School's Out!

Larchmont Charter West Hollywood end of year picnic. Strawberry and whipped cream eating contest, water balloon toss, tug of war, volleyball, yearbook signing, yumminess, friends.

And this time, the picnic was to celebrate Theo's last day of school with all of his friends he has been in class with for two years in his K-1 loop (next year they will mix it up) AND to welcome Benji and all the new kindergarteners to LCW.

I am so proud of both of them and all they have learned this year.

Theo has learned to read, to really really read anything. To draw fantastic imaginary space, underwater, and on-land machines with levers and buttons and screens and ladders and wings and wheels. They are engineering feats. To multiply and add and subtract and play with numbers. To text. To play the piano--including every verse of the Coffees.

Benji has learned to write his name and all the letters of the alphabet, to play a few songs on the piano, to meet and greet his teachers, and to persuade a bunch of rowdy pre-schoolers that they should go to Soak City on their end of year trip. Wow!
