Barnaby Bear

Bear1This week Barnaby Bear came home from Sebastian’s class for an overnight visit. Barnaby visited each member of Sebastian’s class for the past six weeks – even before the extra long holiday thanks to the bad flu circulating Hong Kong just before Easter. Each host then writes about Barnaby’s visit to their home that are placed into a binder that captures  Barnaby’s travels.  Wednesday when Barnaby came home to our place, Tess broke out the camera. Afterwards Tess and I downloaded the photos that I arranged into a collage. The next morning I took one last photo when Sebastian returned to school with Barnaby.

Bear2_2Bear3_2 Thursday night Seb’s homework involved writing descriptions for the collage and the story of Barnaby’s visit. I had a business dinner that night followed by a conference call lasting until 1:30 AM. When I returned home about 2 AM I quickly pulled out Sebastian’s completed  homework. I was so impressed that I scanned the written portion. Sebastian also wrote next to the pictures but to maintain picture quality I used text here instead of re-scanning the pictures. Below is the description of the afternoon and evening. (Click to enlarge images.) What do you think?
