Cheerleader and Buzz Crew



 
If you asked Avery early in the summer if she wanted to play basketball, she said yes!  However, after school was underway she decided that she wanted to be a cheerleader. I had promised her I would coach her Upward Basketball team, but now I am an Upward Cheerleading Coach!  Much to Avery's disappointment- I was never a cheerleader but I am picking up on the basics and the 4 - 6 year old girls could care less.  They just want to cheer!
I purchased Jacy a uniform because I knew she would be upset on Saturday
mornings if she didn't get to dress up. 
 

Here are the girls cheering.  Notice how in sync the team is. HAHA

They loved yelling through the megaphones- even though they were not
yelling the  appropriate cheers.  This picture did not capture them wearing
them on their head!

 We were able to run home after cheerleading to do some chores and rest a little before heading back to Stanton for the Stanton Elementary School Fall Festival.  Avery (along with cousin Karlie) were making their debut as members of the BUZZ Crew.  This is a dance group comprised of K-5 students from SES.  I was concerned that Avery had her dad's rythm, but she proved us wrong.  We really look forward to watching her improve and perform with this group.  It is really cute!


 
 
 
Avery took us to her room to see her color by numbers picture.  She was very proud.
 

 Next, she showed us her BEE on the ALFIE.  Part of Avery's reading homework is Alfie.  In her reading folder is a "part" of this Alfie.  Once they "test" out on one page of Alfie, they get a new page.  This Alfie travels all around the hallway of SES and I am not for sure how many words he is comprised of.


Here is Avery's bee.  My heart absolutely explodes with pride when Avery reads from her reading folder.  It is amazing how quick these little minds learn!
