Sharing vs Show & Tell

Calvin's Show & Tell days are on Mondays.  The first Monday, he brought in his green light-up Light Saber.  He was so excited!  At the end of the day when the teacher asked him if he had any sharing, he told her no.  So after a couple of other people shared, he told his teacher, that he DID have sharing!  But time had run out, so he had to share the next day.

I talked to him about it and come to find out, he didn't realize Sharing and Show & Tell were the same thing!  So all is understood now.

Fast forward a couple of weeks to tonight.....and Calvin says, "Mom, I still don't understand why Sharing and Show & Tell are the same thing.  I mean, when you share with some one, it's like you say, 'Do you want to play with this too?'  and Show & Tell is when you tell about something you're showing people." 

Too smart for his britches!
