Summer Fun

Here are a few of the things my Seabury friends, family and I have been doing these first weeks of summer...

 I would say "Future Rock Star," but I think a gig at the Hard Rock makes him a CURRENT Rock Star. Not a bad way to kick off the summer! 

Posing with a few Seabury fans...

And a few more.

And just to show that we don't really do the "summer slide" at Seabury...

 Here's a 2nd grader learning how to program an Arduino electronics board (my husband Mike's "experience" donation to the auction)

And a couple of book lovers scouting out good summer reads...

 on a Tacoma Book store "crawl."
(We all came home with a *few* good books. LOL.)

And finally, checking out Big Sister A's downtown Tacoma mural capstone project with Mrs. T during our lunch break from the "Daily 5" conference at the Hotel Murano. We were learning more ways to differentiate while teaching reading and writing -- even the teachers never stop learning!

If you are looking for good ways to keep brains active this summer, here's my favorite resource:

Have a great summer, and, as Leslie Burke says in the movie Bridge to Terabithia: 

"...keep your mind wide open."
