Laney's parent-teacher conference was great. All kids take tests in October to score them on reading and math to see if they need help or advanced work. On both tests she scored above-average! She is in the top reading group for kids already reading a little. Her teacher was so happy with her work and her attitude in class. I am so happy that Laney loves school and is excited to go every day.
We went to Ben's parent-teacher conference last night. He has a great teacher this year and Ben likes her also. His reading has improved so much since the summer! Now he is in the 70% reading range. He is also in the highest math group in the class. She commented on how inquisitive he is and hungry to learn about anything. He received all A's and B's! All he needs to work on now is not talking so much in class!!! We are so proud of him. Tomorrow we are meeting with Laney's teacher and will let everyone know how it goes.
This year was great. Ivy and Izzy are here and were able to go Trick or Treating with us. Ben was a Cowboy(Elvis just didn't work out), Laney was a princess(again), and Izzy was a pirate. I wore bunny ears this year and Ben had a Frankenstein mask with gloves. The pictures of us are not up yet, they will be added soon. Ben and Laney took turns on who got to ring the doorbell. We had to carry Izzy the whole time but she would say Trick Treat and thank you. She did a great job. And by the end of the night, she wasn't even scared of Uncle Ben anymore!
