Snakes in a school
Well, Belle has presented us with a new challenge that I never thought i would face- she only likes to go to a class if the teacher has a snake!
How was science?-Good Mom, the snake looked at me, you know he eats goldfish?! (they’re studying the metric system)
How was Mr. Rabe’s class? –Good, do you know he thinks he’s getting a snake, but he could only find a big one. I told him maybe we could find one for him! (they study social skills in that class)
Pretty soon she’ll find a way for the principal to have a snake in her office and we’ll be donating frozen mice to the school.
She only learns what she wants to learn and right now it’s reptiles!

My son was obsessed with dinosaurs to the point where everything at school had to be in dino-speak.. i.e., dinoinches, dinosandwich, footasaurus, you get the picture. It made for some interesting homework directions! Good thing is that it soon passed as he got tired of the extra syllables.
