It was a great year at George Mason Elementary. Alli and Andrew both did an amazing job and sported quite a lot of A's and B's on their final report cards. We are so proud of their accomplishments this year. We knew that moving to across the country and starting in a new school wouldn't be easy but they did great!
At the end of the year for Social Studies each 3rd grader had to do a project on an ancient civilization they had studied through out the year. Alli and Andrew both picked Ancient Greece.
Alli chose to make a 3D map of Ancient Athens for her project. We made it our of salt dough and she painted it with watercolors. She did a great job!
Andrew made a game called "Zeus' Challenge". This year he has been facinated with Greek Mythology. So for his project he created a game that he could show off his knowledge of Ancient Greek and his drawing of Greek characters. He did a great job and we can't wait to try out his game!!
The 3rd Grade picnic got rained out so we had lunch with Alli and Andrew in the classroom. All of their classmates loved Lyla! We set out a blanket on the floor and had a great picnic together!
With the end of the year comes Field Day!! They were grateful to have a hot and sunny day. They got to play lots of fun games and they even got wet!! As an extra bonus their cousin Cassidy came all the way from WA to celebrate Field Day with them.

Finally, the last day of school.
Alli and Andrew both had great teachers that helped them all through the year to be the best 3rd Grader they could be.

And on our way home from the last day of school we had to get a picture with Wanda. She is the crossing guard and helped my babies walk safely home from school every day!
What a great year! Now we can't wait for 4th grade & Kindergarten!!! Ty can't wait!
