Wow we are already in our 4th quarter, the home stretch is ahead of us, before we know it, it'll be the end of another year and we'll be on our summer break.
Anyway, we only received report cards today due to our spring break starting directly after the last day of quarter 3.
Now that I have given the background and foreground hehehe down to the business at hand....how'd we do ?
Aimee is doing fabulously, 13/16 of her grades were A's, 7 of those were A+'s ! She is starting to enjoy her writing more and from her teacher's comments, this is becoming easier and more creative. Of course we still battle to spark the enthusiasm for anything extra at home but at least it seems there is light at the end of the looooooong tunnel :)
As for Lucy, she is getting better with her reading but definitely lacks confidence to try and put herself out there. Same as we had with Aimee, the listening and comprehension is good but the 'trusting that she can try herself' is a little lacking. Oh well many many many years at school still so no need to worry, yet ;)
And hey if the speaker I heard at my recent teacher conference is anything to go by ....looking at brain development, some kids develop the necessary 'links' in the brain as late as 9 years old ! Wow the brain is an amazingly complicated thing !
