Parent-Teacher Conferences

We had parent-teacher conferences for both boys this week. Rion is doing great at daycare. Most of the behavioral issues he had dealing with a new teacher are gone. He loves to learn about new things and is advanced with his reading and writing. His teacher told us that if a teacher ever says he needs to be medicated or has issues, tell her that she’s the problem. J As long as you keep Rion busy and intrigued, he is a pleasure to have in class.
Owen is also doing great at Ardmore. He’s at a 3rd - 4th grade reading level and scored in the 80th percentile versus 2nd graders in math, even though he’s only in 1st grade. His teacher is great about challenging him in the classroom. She allows him to do multiplication fast math on the computer, and worked with the accelerated teacher to develop a tic-tac-toe game that he plays each week. His tic-tac-toe board contains harder activities for him to complete, while the class does the typical stations. When he gets bored in class, he will get into some trouble but apparently it is standard boy behavior. We are very proud of both boys!
