One of My Favorite Things in the World

is to help my kids with this kind of school project. I love the working-together time, love the planning, cutting, coloring and gluing and I love seeing the finished product. The sad thing is that these projects are becoming fewer and farther between. Teachers don't seem to assign this type of stuff much any more because parents are overloaded (at least I tried not to assign them too often for that reason way back when) and because they make use of technology for projects--which is a very good thing, but it just means I don't get to get to do one of my favorite things very much. So I'll relish when I get a chance. I loved last night!!

{This poster is for Ancient World History--Cache's assigned city is Troy, but he decided to make his poster with a pop culture theme. Note it even says Troy, Nevada! All of the lettering is cut out of cardstock and glued on. It turned out very cool looking.}

Darcee, will you be the go to person for my kids when they reach that stage?! I am so not crafty or clever! My kids are going to have the lame projects! The poster looks awesome!
