The school may never be the same

We attended the school open house, and took the entire squad. The place may never be the same. lol. If nothing else it did give the teachers a sneak preview into their future. hehehe Everyone always thinks it's soo cute to see quads... then they realize they are toddlers! They were into everything, especially the 'smart boards'. The smart board is similar to a projector that the teacher used to use to draw on and then project on the screen in front of the class, except this is an interactive touchscreen computer. The teacher runs it either from a laptop at their desk on a handheld device while roaming around the classroom. The student stands at the board and actually writes the answer or points to the correct answer. The teachers always set up presentations on the smart board for parents to see how their children are using them to learn in class. Well, the little squad LOVED it. The teacher in the first room that we visited was kind enough to allow Adre to let them draw on it so then they expected to do it in every room. Yikes. In one of the rooms Anastasia even managed to shut down the hard drive. UGH!

Wow, you are certainly brave! Actually I wanna slap myself upside the head for even saying that because I hear that all the time, too. As if I have a choice? Sit home and miss out on fun events because I have more kids than the average family?

I think not!! Glad you braved it and the kids are adorable!!
