Emily's teacher Mr. Stein gave me some great news this morning!! She is reading beyond the Kindergarten level!! He is going to Excel her in reading!!! I am so proud of her. This way she will be challenged a little more and won't be so bored. He's going to test her in other areas as well. All the books we read really paid off. She is doing well going to school everyday. She retains things so well. They learn a new song everyday and she can come home and sing the song to me word for word. It's AWESOME!! Richard is attending an EXPO meeting tonight in Denton which is like the Talented and Gifted program. We just want to see what it's all about and to see if Emily is even qualified to test for it. We don't want her to skip to first grade, but we would like for her to be challenged and not have Kinder be too easy for her.
I took Ryan to Target today to pick out what he wanted since some friends of ours gave him a giftcard for his b-day. He ended up getting this John Deer tractor play set and 2 die cast cars from Disney Cars. This kid is so into tractors it's NUTS!! That's all he wants to play with and everytime he sees one he will yell out TRACTOR!! This morning he watched the concrete mixers pour their mixture for a slab 2 houses down. He watched until the last truck left. He then brought over his Tonka book and pointed out the concrete truck. So smart!!
