Second Monday at My Old School

Monday came back like it knew the door code. I peeked into my Bright Horizons classroom, did serious scissor work, squeezed Miss Shafon, and ended with Xiao Long Bao spoon science.

My Monday Timeline

My second Monday started with a tiny classroom inspection. Then my hands, my hugging arms, and my dumpling spoon all got busy.

Classroom Detective

I looked through the window before I went in. I needed to check who was there, because my eyes like taking attendance too.

Scissor Work

I practiced cutting paper with scissors. My fingers had an important job, and the paper got smaller and smaller.

Big Hallway Hug

After school I saw Miss Shafon, so I opened my arms very wide. A hug is the fastest hello-goodbye machine.

Din Tai Fung Professional

Daddy picked Din Tai Fung again, because Monday has a dumpling button now. I had Xiao Long Bao and beef noodle soup.

First the soup goes into the spoon. Then the spoon goes to me. That is careful dumpling science.
