Kindergarten Chronicles, 25 October

On top of the great report from her teacher last week, Ethel is the lucky kid who got to bring home the Mystery Bag for class. Each child will get the bag 1-2 times this school year. They are to bring an item from home in the bag, and the class has to guess what the item is that's in the bag. It can be anything, and the kids are encouraged to write down five clues to give their classmates to help them guess what's in the bag.

Ethel could not wait to do this. She came up with tons of ideas for what to bring in the bag, but, finally settled on a plastic, purple Barbie car that was handed down from the girls next door. She dilligently wrote out all five clues, all of which she came up with on her own. I helped her spell a few words, and she did awesome.

I can't wait to hear about how it went today and if any of them guessed what she brought. :)

{Insert update on the Mystery Bag - someone aparently guessed by clue 3.  She was pleased, and can't wait to bring home the Bag later this school year}
