Parent-Teacher Conferences

We did parent-teacher conferences with the kids back in March & I never posted about it. James got an absolutely glowing report from his teacher, Mr. Gray. 

Here is just a little bit of his work - a story called "Why I Was Late (very late)"  it's not quite finished (or it ends on a cliffhanger) and uses a surplus of quotation marks.

 

 

James had to fill out this reflection in advance - I am not sure what galloping is or why he's working on it. 

 

 

 

I'm not sure what this was work for, exactly, but it's Leah's and seems breakfast-related:

Leah's teacher let the kindergartners sit in her seat and lead the conference  - she felt very grown-up! 

Leah sat at the desk and drew this during James's conference. (A Circus?) Such nice attention to detail - and so helpful that she could amuse herself while we talked with the teacher!

I met with Amelie's social studies teacher & she talked me into supervising field day at the end of the year. And this is what 7th grade math tests look like, now - she got all of them right on the first page. They're doing basically the same things I was doing in high school in Algebra, Geometry, and Trig.

From a band competition:

Here is what a Kindergarten report card looks like in 2023 - actually just the first page of a three page document. James's is in the same format, too.
