As
with the rest of the country, the eclipse was a big hit in our house.
Evelyn class talked about it in the week leading up to the eclipse. Pat
and I realized too late that
we should have gotten glasses way ahead of time because everyone was
out of stock and, if a place did have them, the upcharge was
ridiculous. Evelyn’s school purchased glasses for each of the children
in her class so that they could watch the eclipse. They
attached paper plates (that the kids got to decorate) to the outside so
that the kids couldn’t look around the glasses. They also incorporated
the eclipse in to the lesson plan. I’m pretty sure Evie knew more
about what was happening than we did! She was
very excited to witness such a cool event and from the looks of the
pictures, all of the kids had a great time!
I
ended up getting to see the eclipse at work because my co-workers were
kind enough to let me look through their glasses. Pat and Mitch were
able to catch the tail end
of it using Evie’s glasses when he picked her up from school.
