Flute update...

Kayla made first chair again last Friday! Way to go Kay!

Lions, Tigers and "ZEBEARS?!"

Jordan has a couple of drawings he wanted to share with you. The first one is his bear. I thought he did a good job on it.

The second one is of a Zebear. A Zebear is his fictitious animal he had to create for school. I thought you might like to read his essay on what exactly a zebear is, so I'm posting it too. He was proud of the project because he got a perfect score.

Zebear

by Jordan

Although I like writing about real animals, making your own is really cool. My animal is a zebear. My animal lives in the forest and in the forest it is warm. My animal defends itself by blending in with the trees. Also it kicks. If he wants food he stomps on his food like mice or rats. Sometimes he'll swim to catch fish with his sharp teeth. He drinks water also. He can run fast because of his long legs. He communicates by snarling and growling. that's what my

animal is.

Way to go KAYLA!

Kayla found out the results of her flute test today. Drum roll please! She made...

FIRST CHAIR!!!

Way to go! She feels as high as a kite, well until the next test in a couple of weeks.

Kayla's music test!

Kayla has a flute test, Friday. She gets really nervous when she has them. The test is for a grade and is a deciding factor in what"chair" she is. Say a prayer for her! She has been practicing...

We will let you know how she does.

Kayla's drawings...

Not to be outdone by her younger brother, Kayla had a few art pieces, herself. Above, is a picture she drew while watching the new Star Wars cartoons with her young cousins, during Christmas break and below is her tiger. She borrowed her brother's new art book. I wonder if he knew that?!

Jordan's new drawings...

Jordan got a new drawing book for Christmas from his Grammy. She knows how much he loves to draw. He wanted to share his two latest masterpieces with you.
