Co-op pictures
Some of the people in the group are discussing putting together a yearbook this year. (I will not volunteer, I will not volunteer) OTH, Boy likes the idea and is all gung ho to be involved with it. (I will not volunteer, I will not volunteer)
So, while he doesn’t participate in the co-op classes, he’s tagged along these first two weeks in order to get some pictures. And I thought I’d share a few.
The first class we are calling Apprentices. It’s really a preschool/kindergarten class. These kids have one teacher for the morning, though she has a bunch of helpers.
The next oldest class are the Pages. It’s all girls right now which makes for an interesting dynamic - very quiet.
Stirring and carving soap for crafts
Then come the Squires. This class is mostly boys and while very attentive, you have to watch for the hanging from the ceiling tendencies (No, they are very well behaved)
Measuring feet
Discussing a medieval village and building a castle for it.
And the last class we are calling Knights. This is the largest group and can get the most rowdy with the interplay of some of the personalities. (Girl included) But they have fun doing the stuff and hanging out.

Well, I guess Boy can volunteer in your stead then, since he seemsto be a shutterbug! Cool pics. Your coop looks great.

Wow, Meg, it looks like the co-op is going to be very successful! Looks like a lot of fun.

You won’t volunteer right away, you know how it is in ANY youth organization. The same core group of a few parents do all the work, or else, nothing extra gets done.
