I have reason to believe Carson's Kindergarten teacher has magical powers and uses them to produce desirable behaviors from 5 year olds. Let me explain:
Exhibit A: Carson brought this home today as a reward for good behavior. Anyone who has spent any amount of time with the child knows he's never quiet for a minute. He is a constant string of chatter, singing and random noise making everywhere he goes (including the bathroom). Really in the company of 22 other 5 year olds he is as "quiet as a mouse?"
Exhibit B: What in the world did she do to get him to take his time and actually put some effort into his work? I was one of his preschool teachers for 2 years and he was always doing 2 swipes with the crayon and calling it good just to be the first one to finish.
Exhibit C: What a picture without the color green? Up until now I've ONLY seen him use a green crayon to color everything on the page. And again please take note that it actually looks like his best effort here!
I don't know how she does it. . . but I hope she writes a book soon because I could sure use some tips at home!
