Fossil

Addie came home with this cup full of hard clay and she said she had to find a way of breaking it open to get out her dinosaur. If I read the stuff they send home I would probably know exactly what was going on but I am always confused at why she needs to be doing these things in preschool. Any way she took a spoon and a fork and tried to dig out the dino but then she decided she wanted to just hit it with a hammer. The idea was to excavate like an archeologist and find the fossil that was left imprinted in the clay but she blew that idea into a bunch of tiny little pieces. I love how she found her version of safety goggles. All I know is I can't wait for school to be out. I figure I need to try harder to help her learn what ever it is they are trying to teach. But.... God just the thought of it is exhausting!
