The end of the school year is winding down. The boys have been bringing home the contents of their desk daily.
This weekend Finn(age 6) brought home about a years worth of writing assignments and samples and stories that he has done in class.
Here are a bunch of my favorites: I have included original spelling, and italicized the translation where needed
These are a series of papers that he did throughout the year, and they are not in order. The ones that have a LOT of spelling mistakes were from the begining of the school year.
What I LOVE about these are his little conversations he has in the middle of his compositions.
Oh anc in case you dont sense a theme, he REALLY wants to be a firefighter.
The best of Finns first Grade compositions...
