Boxaquerque
Triple A has the most amazing teacher....They did a boxville in their classroom for one week. They each had their own business and would have to get business license,business cards, pay taxes and go shopping for supplies. Each kid had to visit the other businesses during the day. It was amazing! They even got salaries and bonuses. It was an amazing learning experience for Triple A. He was a teacher and ran a school. He had to have homework assignments for every subject.. There were museums, bakeries(with real donuts and cookies) Chinese restaurants( yes, real food there too), Printing shops, libraries.... you name it, it was probably there. It was so much work on the parents part to get ready but after I saw it all working and how much they were enjoying it I felt guilty for my late night grumbling as his school was being made in our garage! These are the kind of teachers we need more of!

Yes, we do need more teachers like this. one of our sons, Russell, became a high school art teacher last year(after he put in his ten yrs or so of school, degrees, etc) and is that kind of teacher. YEA! for teachers who care enough and more!
