Smarter than a 4th grader
Posted by bradmoistdotcom | Filed under Uncategorized
I went back to school today…back to 4th grade. My sister in-law Samantha is a 4th grade teacher at a school in Harrisburg. So this afternoon I went in and helped her out. As soon as I walked in I started helping a girl with a math assignment, which was probably something I should not have done. It took me a while to remember perimeter and area. So I’m pretty sure there are some 4th graders smarter than me when it comes to math. I was then introduced as the “other” Mr. Moist. I then re-worked some of her bulletin boards about classroom behavior. I even got to walk the kids out for a fire drill, do you remember those? I finished the day off by reading them some short stories, one of which was called The Stinky Cheese Man. In all it was a lot of fun but I don’t know how Sam does it. She’s great with the kids and has an amazing sense of how to communicate and to them at that age.
Tonite we grabbed dinner and drinks at the new Lancaster Brewing Company that opened up in H-burg. Their mirco-brew sampler is really good and includes beers called Strawberry Wheat, Amish Four Grain, Milk Stout, and the Hop Hog. Brandon and Sam then went to go see Horton Hears A Who while Greg King and I went and saw The Bank Job. Tomorrow is the official celebration of Sam’s birthday and the plans are for Hibachi in Hollywood…I’ll explain in the next post…
