Okay, so robots don't make me happy all that often. But today they did.
One of my boys wasn't doing what he should have been doing. Which isn't all that great. But instead of doing his work, he was drawing robots. These were quite possibly the best robots that I have seen a 5 year old draw in a long time. And he was so excited about them. He spoke more about his picture of robots and what they could do, than I have heard him speak since he started school. They were really cool.
But the best thing to me is that I now know this boy a lot more. I know what excites him and what interests him. I got to see a whole other side to a little boy that I've been having a little problem connecting with. And I now have a way to switch him on to his learning...
...through robots!
