This afternoon at work (I am an elementary school teacher) I went out to the playground to gather a few of my students.  After looking around a bit, I found the kids whom I was looking for.

Two of the kids that I found were playing in a rather animated group of first graders.  There were about fifteen kids picking up handfuls of freshly-fallen snow, rubbing it in their hair, and exclaiming: "Look at me!  I'm George Washington!"  (I took a picture of this, and I e-mailed it to myself to post in this weblog, but somehow the mail didn't go through.  We'll just have to go without a visual aid.)

The good news is that the recent Presidents' Day lectures have had some sort of impact on the kids.  The bad news is that kids are rubbing snow in their hair!
