Life's Rewards...

So to get a "soaring eagle" award @ Jordan Ridge Elementary you choose from a list of extra activities/assignments. If you complete so many by the end of the year then you get your award. Dylan has 3 left to do so last night I was reading the remaining things on the list so he could choose which ones he wanted to complete. #13 on the list says, "Listen to music from any famous composer and tell your class your favorite selection and why." I went to pick Dylan up from school today and he was jamming away with his ipod. He knows he's not supposed to take the ipod to school so I'm like...What the heck? "Mom...I had to so I can get my soaring eagle award!." Dylan's choice of music was Footloose. Pretty sure he doesn't know the famous composer and I would've liked to be in the room when he explained why it was his favorite selection. Hopefully he didn't do the dance moves he practices at home where he's jiving his hips. lol! Way to take charge and earn your award, buddy! Life would be so entertaining if you were a first grade teacher!
