In 3rd grade at CCS, the kids have to do a Book Report Float. They read a book and then have to design a rolling float that depicts a scene from the book. Elijah, who is very creative, had a plan and new exactly what he wanted to do. One night after he had gone to bed, he came upstairs to Jon and I and said he had finished his book and knew what he wanted to do for his float. I told him to draw a picture of it and we would start working on it soon. Ten minutes later he came upstairs with this blueprint.
Elijah read "The Sword in the Tree".
So he paper mached a huge tree and then glued a knight hiding his sword in the tree. Meanwhile his mean uncle and his angry friends plotted against him.
I was very proud of his float because he worked so hard on it.
Last year, Jonah used the same cart to do his float. He did a great job too so I thought I would show off his too. He read "The Search for Sunken Treasure". He drew the characters from the book and put a ship above water and the treasure below.
What smart boys I have!!!!!

So cute!! Breck has been reading "Sword in the tree" as well, but then he lost it so we're looking!! :) Great job, Elijah!! So creative. Breck would NEVER do that--craftiness is not his thing!
