Showcase Night

Our homeschool co-op had it's first ever Showcase Night last night. It's a chance for friends and
family to see what the children have been doing at Friday School. It was a great night!

Ben's classes had two display tables. The Dangerous Boys class sported tornadoes, a volcano, an egg & bottle trick, and others.

This is a table full o' pirate booty.

The pirate classes - two classes are actually represented here - got up on stage to share what they'd learned. I half expected Benjamin to be too bashful to speak, but he started talking...and talked, and talked...

Here's Kyle and the book he made in preschool class. (yes, he really does love that shirt)

And pirate Ben with his lapbook. It's very fun, hands-on, and chock full o' pirate lore.

We had a great experience with our first term at Friday School. Thanks, First Class!

That looks like fun! We have the dangerous book for girls here and it has a lot of the same things in it! Love the tornados! And we've even made "sit upons" and have learned about female spies!... love using the walkie talkies for that one! It's a great book!:-)

Deb - There was a class for the girls too...I think they called it "Daring Girls." They did a presentation last night (hand/clapping games & rhymes) and DID mention "sit upons." They were all wearing kerchiefs in their hair, it was really cute!

What a great opportunity. The boys look so proud.
