1000 Charts

. . . the vexation of every 2nd grade parent! Kiersten and I suffered through it last year and was very tempted to simply attach Erik's name to her work this year. The concept (or at least I'm assuming this is what the teachers had in mind) is for the child to understand what a thousand things looks like after handling each little particle. Oh the agony. Kiersten's was comprised of every imaginable LITTLE thing possible that has to individually be glued on and finally wrapped in packing tape to ensure that all those little things would in fact stay on (we finally started doubling up after running out of ideas). Erik was all about the stickers with hidden messages. Hallelujah! at least for another year or two.
