PARTICIPATING

5th grade attended the "Stomp" performance.

Jonah was scared to sit in his balcony seat so their aide let him find his safe spot on the aisle steps.  

Sometimes participating means adapting, 

but that's ok!

Ben handled the "Stomp"performance like a pro.  Since the boys' main friends at school are a group of girls, Ben is giving his "I'm quite the guy having all these girls around me" look.  

Sometimes participating is just plan fun!

The school staff made a point of having the boys each lunch with their peers.

It's so neat to see them just be part of the group.

Sometimes participating just comes naturally!

PS: These photos were in the school yearbook so I don't feel uncomfortable sharing them on this blog.

Jonah and Ben's homeroom class voted Jonah as the MVP of their group for this school year.  Jonah was so proud to go up and receive his reward.  We are so proud of him, and we are so happy the kids in their class appreciate and recognize the boys as valuable members of their class.

Sometimes participating can be rewarding!

Thank you to all the teachers and aides at school who work so hard to make our boys the best they can be. 

These boys aren't just participating, they are participating in a MEANINGFUL way!  

And that's a wrap- 

5th grade is done, and 6th grade is our next stop. 

Summer plans include summer school, school with mom, speech device camp for 4 days, swimming, baseball, and camping!
