School Conferences

As many of you know, Starshine loves school so we were expecting a very positive conference today - and we weren't disappointed. Her teacher is very pleased with her love for reading (her reading skill level is WELL above median), her good handwriting (especially being a leftie) and good attitude. She has also made new friends, which was a small concern of ours because none of her Kindergarten friends ended up in her class this year. Overall - she's a great kid to have in class!

The only downside of her superstar reading status is she seems to think everything should be easy for her, and therefore gets frustrated easily with math. So, we're going to be working on her postitive attitude towards math. (Because, let's face it, I may cry if she decides she hates math!)

But, we'll save working on it for later this weekend, because she now has 4 days off for teachers convention, and a super special day with Mom and Dad tomorrow. Hopefully we'll get lots of great photos to share with you all.

P.S. Jr. Princess loved coming to conferences because she got to work on her own "homework" sitting at Starshine's desk while we met with the teacher. Seriously - she would start school now if they would let her!
