Teacher conference

This morning we had the spring conference with Anna's 2nd grade teacher, Ms. Cundy, whom we love! She said Anna is right on target for this point in the year and is a joy to have in her class! Anna started the year at a reading level of 18 and is now 24. By the end of second grade she should be at level 28...so we have lots more reading to do! The main difference between 24 and 28 is the ability to do a thorough written summary of what is read. Ms. Cundy said Anna was her #1 student as far as math facts - addition and subtraction. I guess all that extra work at Kumon is paying off! She is still working on everyday math skills like money, making change, telling time and temperature, etc. Her handwriting continues to improve and she is working on consistency in punctuation, capitalization and spelling. She is also working on staying focused on her work. (Smile) - Aren't we all? Anna showed us some of the things she has been doing on the school's iPad and some of the stories she has written. She wrote a very cute story about going fishing with Boppa at Green Lake! We were so proud of her and all she is learning this year!!
