Once Upon A Time, Your Teacher was in 5th grade...
Cub Scout and
Kite Maker Craig

  This flashback from the Fifties is a quick look at your teacher when he was in 5th grade, a long time ago!

BirdBoy & Boogiemeister
Indoor or outdoors,
this kid was always into music.
The sweet sounds of chirping and the not-always-so-sweet piano beat could be heard coming from his direction.
Baseball, Football,
Anyball at All
Quarterback, pitcher, point guard, tennis king,
you name it, he played it,
he loved to do everything!
But, like any other younger brother, he could be a royal pain.
(Please notice the sunglasses in the hand of Sailor Sam...and the smile that
is widening upon the face which belies his sweetness and conveys the absolute truth about his ever marauding & mischievous mind.  As you may
have quessed, just prior to the snapping of this idyllic photo, the beloved
sister, standing behind Sailor Sam, was trying to retrieve her sunglasses.)
But, then one day, he grew up, graduated and became a teacher!
Now, he gets to spend every day scouting around for new ideas, making kites, finding birds, singing songs,
playing all sorts of games, and torturing his students
instead of his grateful sister who lives too far away
to even worry about her little brother.
Too bad for you, kids!

But luckily... he got a
NEW PUPPY!

Elle s'appelle Sylvie.
L'étoile la plus lumineuse.
La "dog star"
comme Sirius.
