Carter's thinking outside the box...

Today Ms Jensen, Carter's kindergarten teacher, brought me over to see all the kids' sealife project.  They had been learning about sea creatures for a while, and were making a 3D art project...They were supposed to just pick a favorite sea creature...draw it, paint it, then stuff it with newspaper, and then she hung them up in the room.  Why did she ask me specifically to see this display of jelly fish, sea horses, and sea-snakes?  Because Carter's project made us both sing the Sesame Street Song:

"One of these things is not like the other."

This was HIS project:

Oh yes.  MY child didn't settle for a simple drawing of a sea-creature.  No No.  He took it the extra six miles and displayed the food chain!  Which the class hadn't even talked about, Ms. Jensen pointed out.  That's how awesome our little Carter man is, in case you were wondering!

(Ms. Jensen pointed out that Carter told her the green stuff at the end was plankton but he had run out of room so didn't want to write it.)
