Johnny Apple Seed

Kathryn's class learned about Johnny Apple Seed this year. They invited parents to a skit to show what they had learned. They each had a speaking part and learned a handful of songs. It was short and sweet! And we were treated to yummy apple crisp afterward!


Kathryn was a little upset when she was assigned her part. It was one of the shortest "Why, Thank you Johnny!" Then a high five! Most kids had to memorize a few lines. I told her it was probably because her teacher knew she was trying to memorize her part for the primary Program too and didn't want to give her too much! (Hey, a mom has to be clever once and a while! Right? Plus, she is one of the only LDS kids in her class, but her teacher is LDS, so I can use that card when I need to!)

Johnny with a 'pot' on his head???

Singing! Yup, used the 'pioneer dress' again! She insisted that she was suppose to dress like a pioneer for the skit. Notice that no one else got that memo? Oh, well.

Singing again.

Smiling at me while waiting to start!

Kat's teacher is so nice and has a lot of fun things for the kids. It makes such a difference in Kat's attitude about school! She is getting A's in all areas and has only had to change her color one time for talking (she insists she wasn't!) Now if only I could get her to enjoy PE! Then we would have no school worries!
