Way to go Carli!! Student of the Month again!

 

Regan in the 1st grade "Reader's Theatre". She did AMAZING!!

     This is totally bragging, and I'm not biased at all, but our girls are so smart! We tease them about being "smarty pants" and "teachers pet" and they only respond with giggles...they LOVE it! We are always going to the school for the girls accomplishments. Its lunch in the classroom one week, ice cream with the principal for perfect attendance the next. Then Readers Theater or Golden Roar, who knows. They keep us at the school so often all the administration knows who we are! :) I guess its better than Chad...the administration knew him as a kid, but for "other reasons"!
     Carli is a wonderful student who excels in all subjects. She scores 'Advanced' on all her state testing results and is reading at a 9th-10th grade level! She always gets Student of the Month from one teacher or another (e.g. music, PE, classroom, administration, etc) She is just an all-around good kid! I received a phone call on my cell phone from her teacher's home number. At first, I panicked! I thought, "Uh oh! What happened?" But I was pleasantly surprised when her teacher said she just wanted to call and tell us what a great student Carli is and she feels so lucky to have her in her class this year! :) We are so proud of our Carli! She is truly an amazing girl!! Love,love,love her!
     Regan has surprised us this year! She has just blossomed into a wonderful student too! Being so quiet and shy, I never expected her teachers to ever really get to know her and all she can do. BUT she has come out of her shell and developed the self confidence to show her "stuff"! Regan is a very curious girl so she loves to read and learn new things. Her latest activities have been science experiments...she makes them up, of course! We've been planting and watering various seeds, dying water to put celery in, and all sorts of crazy fun ideas! This girl is great fun! Regan is also a great reader. She participated in the 1st grade "Readers Theatre" where they pick the best readers from the grade and they perform/read for the rest of the grade. We were surprised that Regan was the only participant who read without a partner. I asked her teacher about it afterwards and she said that Regan is the BEST reader in the grade and didn't need a partner!! In fact, she then talked to me about having Regan SKIP 2nd grade and go into 3rd grade next year!! What a great thing to hear! She is such a joy! So proud of our Regan! Sure love her lots!!
     I feel so blessed to be entrusted with these amazing little girls! They are my biggest blessings!! Even if they are "Teachers Pet"
