School Days...




Ian is getting more comfortable with heading off to school. He has made significant improvements. No more tears in the morning...maybe a "I don't feel well" comment, but that's about it. He is talking more about what is going on at school and sometimes his favorite part of the day is "centers" instead of "going out on the playground" or "seeing you" or "going home." He draws pictures and then writes sentences about them. On one assignment he wrote, "Somr is Ian's favorite season. I like to swim in the somr. The words in bold is what he had to fill in. The document you see here is the "Writing the Room" assignment they can do in Centers. Ian thinks it's cool to get paper on a clipboard and search in the room the hidden words. Ms. Braun puts these words all over the room. Then, if there is time, they can draw a picture of the word and color it in.


Gavin is loving pre-school! Every Tuesday we hear about Miss Amy and music. We hear about earning a skittle at Bible Time. We here that you need to be quiet in the elevator and that you have to sit down. When he gets into the car at pick up time, he stops non talk and holds up the carpool line because he wants to tell me everything before he gets into his carseat! You can see the great coloring he did in part of his Apple Book!

Aunt Sandi arrived late yesterday afternoon. After school we headed over there for dinner. We'll be able to see each other each day and the boys were very excited to see Aunt Sandi!

Off to school and work...we're a bit out of our routine this week again! I'm usually in Ian's classroom Tuesday morning, but am headed to NCSU to complete some work since I am going with Ian's class on a fieldtrip this Friday!
