Brandon's play

Brandon's 4th grade play was about Colorado history. He decided to do his project on Mesa Verde. He wanted to do a diorama and a power point presentation. I ended up doing the majority of the project and diorama and Mom did most of the powerpoint. He tells me two days before the project was due. Then he got upset because they didn't choose him to be one of the presenters for the play. I told him that if he had learned more and practiced his speech more than maybe they would have. The day before the play he came home and said he was supposed to be an Indian  for the play so we spent the rest of the evening creating an Indian costume for him to wear. It is a good thing I like that kind of stuff so I had some things on hand. They played their recorders and sang songs and 11 of the kids did their presentations. I don't know how they chose who got to do the presentations but most of theirs wasn't any better than Brandon's.
