Austin Graduations Kindergarten

The next week, it was Austin's turn to graduate kindergarten.  Kindergarten was a lot of fun for Austin.  We are so happy with the school decision we made.  Austin had a great teacher.  He made lots of friends.  We enjoy all the families he is friends with.  It has been a great year.

Austin enjoyed being on the track team this year.  He did great with track.  Each meet he ran four events: 50 meters, 100 meters, relay, and field event.  Austin did great with the long jump.  He even got a medal for that.  He also got a medal for running one mile without stopping.  That was a lot of fun for him and he was proud to do it.

One thing Austin's teacher did was a clip up system.  If they behaved well at school, they would be able to clip up.  Then after 5 days of clipping up, they got to pick a treasure from the treasure box.  It was really cool for him.  Most days he clipped up.

Austin did enjoy art, music, and computer class.  He also liked the library and gym.  At recess, he played tag with his friends.  During indoor recess he liked to make art projects at his desk.  He has learned to read simple books.  He enjoyed learning to read with the superkids.  He has even taught Sydney some of the songs for the superkids.  Austin is very good at math.  Probably one of the best in the class.

Austin's graduation was in the church.  My dad was not feeling well so he did not attend.  My mom meet us at the church.  The kids came into the church single file and Brian got pictures.  They sat down and there were a few speakers.  Then they did a few songs.  Then they got their diplomas.  It was really cool.  Austin got the Excellent Thinker Award.  He got it the day before graduation from his teacher.

After graduation, we got some pictures with his friends.  Then we went to the playground and the kids played.  It was cold.  Afterwards, Brian went to work.  I took the kids to the rec center to swim.  Then we came home and took a nap before the Cavs game.  We all went to the Cavs game that night.  It was a fun day!

Now we have a kindergartener and a 1st grader!
