What's a Diorama?

23 Mar 2009

Tyler had to make a desert diorama for school. He was hesitant to let me help him but after we got started he was really excited. We made salt dough for the ground, cacti and animals. Tyler did all the painting and sand gathering. After he was done painting the desert wolf he said, "This wolf doesn't look as good as it did in my mind." Oh man! I thought it looked okay. A friend of mine helped Tyler take his project into the school this morning. She told me that today when she asked him about the diorama he said, "Yeah, my dad usually helps me with these things, but he's in Washington D.C. right now so my mom had to help me. All I have is a phone dad."

You're writing about two different friends there Suzie! I don't always take Tyler to school, but I know that your other friend does! But Tyler's comment WAS super cute! He's way too smart for his own good!

Wow. You should let Tyler know that we (Stephanie and I) think he did a cracken job. Simply splended!
