Parents' Night

What a fantastic window in to the life of MAG we got last night. The evening was an interactive one, filled with activities for moms and dads. A chance to complete our own "doodle", for instance. A doodle is a simple squiggly line on a piece of paper that when added to can evolve into pretty much anything ... that with the artistry of Marc can transform into a gorgeous, moustached man; or, in the case of Mommy, a simple piece of cinnamon swirl raisin toast; or, in the case of Hugo the squiggle fantastically became an elephant's tusk attached to an elephant sniffing out a giraffe in a jungle. Parental 'work' was then left in the children's folders for their viewing today. We wrote notes to Hugo in his journal, responding to all of the work on view in the classroom. Lots of learning, lots of fun.
