I broke out our dry erase board again...  We didn't use the board to go over sentence structure or list our spelling words...  no, we used it to keep the peace during school.  You see, your child doesn't need to go public school in order to learn how to drive their teacher crazy... nope!  I believe they are born with that talent!!! Naturally bred. 

With that in mind, my mommy senses should of been more alert to the forthcoming, but it wasn't. It was the flying pencils that caught my attention finally.  So, I decided to take action - No more silly business!  Unfortunately, I don't have a large home to designate a room to school  (our kitchen table does just fine) so our school area is limited.  However, I have learned how to turn our every day kitchen into an awesome school room!  Today we actually got creative and added this nice little divider between classrooms (that's sarcastic, you know).  On one side there was the fifth grade room - and on the other side was second grade.  The preschool department was taking a nap.  Well, much to my surprise, this handy dandy dry erase board helped keep the peace during school time.  The talking was limited and work was actually completed! 

Wow.  Who would of thought there were so many uses for a dry erase board!!!
