Everyday Foster had a 30 minute group call in the morning. Then he worked with Grandma Becky on Math; Grandma Cheryl on writing and spelling; and read to an adult which included relatives and our neighbors. Along the way, he wrote lots of letters to classmates and family and accompany these sometimes potholders or embroidery. This was a challenging time with him away from his friends, but he made the best of it.
He also played lots of LEGOs with Kai, especially Star Wars vehicles. At the beginning we watched a show on LEGO challenges, which inspired the boys and they were off and running, sometimes even Aunt Whitney would give them a Friday afternoon LEGO challenge.
It was fun to see what sparked his interest. One day he was so excited about flesh eating flowers that he spent a day researching and typing up a report on these flowers which he shared with his class.

| He created a Washington Memorial out of LEGOs and then wrote a three page report, which he shared and presented to his class. |
 |
| One Friday morning Foster came to me with a written list. He said that the day before we had talked about explaining what you need and communicating that to others. He needed a quiet office with a desk and a chair and supplies, which he had carefully written out in a list. We promptly made him an "office" in the corner of his room. |

| Embroidery projects were one of Foster's works. |
 |
| Plans for a tree house that Foster wanted to build with his Grandpa. |
 |
| He wrote lots and lots of letters to classmates and family. |
 |
| He learned to make a 6 minute cake. No eggs needed, which was good, as eggs were in short supply at the beginning of April. This was for Grandma Cheryl's birthday, |
 |
| Foster made so many potholders too! |
