First Progress Report

By

Dawson got his first progress report this week. He has mostly A's, with a couple of B+'s (87%-89% .. and one of those is PE for not dressing out a couple of days). His A's are in all of his difficult classes, so I am VERY proud of him! He is determined to get his B's up to A's because he wants to get all A's this quarter. So far public school has been very good for him.

Dawson was so proud of his first progress report that he put it on the refrigerator for all to see!


He has made a couple of good friends and even has his eye on a girl! He's playing it cool, though. Although he has not ever been one to get too involved in activities, he says that he is considering running track in the spring. I think that would be great.

I am looking forward to a continued good year for him.

      Yes, Jessy, those are AAS tiles! Dawson has a ball with them. Every day he tries to build a phrase using just the available letters. It can be entertaining.

ABCya

By
Eli's reading resource teacher shared a website with me yesterday that I would like to pass along. It's called ABCya . There are separate educational sections with fantastic games for ages kindergarten through 5th grade. I browsed the 2nd grade level, and it includes age-appropriate games about Letters, Numbers, Shapes, Geometry, Patterns, Mouse Manipulation, Art and Holiday games. There are lots and lots of fun and creative games for children to play. They are fun, but oh, so educational. Eli's favorite, in his short time playing it, was Create a Car . A lot of the games also have Apps available for purchase (99 cents for most of them) for the iPad and iPhone. I have been looking for another free website for games similar to Starfall , for some time. I think I have found it. I can feel confident having Eli and Brynne play these games.
