School conferences

Cameron and Maia's school had school conferences yesterday, and they are both doing SO well!

Cameron, Mr. First Grade, struggled a bit at the beginning of the school year with some behavior issues, but he seems to have gotten past them, and is doing super well in school. His teacher says he loves to be the classroom helper, and does a great job with it. He is becoming quite the reader, and is reading with the advanced group in his class so he doesn't get bored. He scored in the 94th percentile on a reading test his class took recently, and he continues to excel.

Math is progressing very well for him, too, and he is really enjoying it. We're working on numbers some, because as he learns he is still writing some of them backwards, but he learns so fast! He's doing a great job. His teacher is very very proud of him, and so are we.

The big Kindergarten Maia also got rave reviews from her teacher. She is in the top fourth of her class, and her group is going through the reading lessons splendidly. She loves school, and has a great attitude. She got great marks across the board.

Maia's teacher sent home some worksheets so she can work on her letters and sounds, and she really enjoys practicing and doing her homework. She's a great little reader, and is picking everything up quickly.

They're growing up so fast!
