End of School Fun & Final Report Cards

The last few days of school were fun days for the kids. Ethan was in a play put on by all the first graders called Lemonade. The play included all the fairy tale characters and Ethan was the Spider from Little Miss Muffett. So cute!

Ethan was also able to participate in the first grade Mexican Fiesta. They got to go around to each classroom where there was something set up to help them learn more about Mexico - food, games, etc... I helped out with one of the classroom stations and got to tell the kids all about the Mexican flag. It was a fun day.

Then a few days after that, the first graders had their end of year picnic. I went and had a little lunch with Ethan (sitting outside on blankets) and got to watch him have fun playing with his friends.

Ashlyn also had her end of year picnic. I went to hers as well, but missed the lunch part. The 4th graders had stations set up - basketball, water balloon toss, kickball, etc... That was a lot of fun.

REPORT CARDS
Miss Ashlyn yet again scored above grade level in Reading, and yet again brought home A/B Honor Roll. She earned 7 A's and 2 B's! The note from her teacher says: "Ashlyn worked hard this year and has made good progress..." We are very proud of her. So she is off to 5th grade next year!

Mr Ethan also scored above grade level in Reading again. He does not get letter grades, but instead checks for Consistently Demonstrating (CD), Developing (D), and Needs Improvement (NI). He earned 28 checks under CD, 11 under D, and only 1 under NI. His teacher's note reads: "I've really enjoyed working with Ethan this year! He is a special kid, and an excellent reader! Over the summer practice writing with neater handwriting!" He was passed to the 2nd grade, and we are very proud of him as well.
