Evan's Last day of school celebration June 21, 2012

 Evan is moving from 2nd to 3rd grade and to a new school with a new teacher as his current classroom is only a 1st/2nd grade class. I am sad because we love his teacher and para educators that he has been with. Hopefully, all will go well in the new class.
 Evan's teacher put on a little graduation celebration for the kids.
 They all sang a cute little song about graduation. During the song Evan got distracted by a fly.

 But he was really trying to do the hand movements for the song.



 This is Evan getting his certificate.
 Evan's teacher has a daughter in college and she would come and help in the classroom alot. Especially when she was out of school.
 She made this awesome cake for the party. It was a rainbow cake.
 Giving Ms. Sparman the quilt I made of all of the kids for her.
 Evan and his friend Amanda
 Evan and his para educator Ms. Shahira
 Ms. Sparmanis just as sad to see us go.
 Giving his friend Jacob a hug. They are so sweet
 Evan and Ms. Sparman's daughter Maddie
Evan and Mrs. Padilla the other para educator.

I am hopeful that his new classroom will work out great once we all get adjusted to it. His teacher has heard great things about the new teacher and many of her kids have gone to this classroom for 3rd/4th grade.

Fun at the park

For the last 4 weeks of school we went to the park on Friday mornings with Evan's class.

 He loved going down this big slide. He had to work to get up to it so it was a great accomplishment
 Getting help climbing the rock wall. It is always a 2 person job to get Evan up climbing things like this. It was nice to have extra help.
 Gabriel came one friday and was so tired he fell asleep on the bench.
 Climbing up the ladder. Week 1 he needed help by week 3 he was doing it all by himself.
 From climbing up the ladder to getting himself up to the platform.
 Evan and his friend. They both use communication devices.

Field Day at Evan's School June 2012

 Evan had field day at his school the last week of school. It consisted of 10 stations that the kids rotated to. I took Evan through his stations since he would need full assistance. We were with another 1st grade class. I will admit it was hard seeing his differences in comparison to a group full of typical kids.
He did great on the balance boards


 He loved the water play station. First you had to fill up a sponge with water and then run to the other bucket and squeeze it out. The group who had the most water in the bucket won.
 It was a great game for him because he understood the concept and was excited to do it.

Being Goofy!!


The best teacher ever!!!
