We learned at our parent/teacher conference on Thursday that Austin would be making an
Eagle hat on Friday. When I picked him up from daycare on Friday, the eagle hat was no where to be found. I asked Austin where it was and he mumbled something about not being finished so he had to throw it away. I really can't imagine his teacher telling him to throw it away, but I have no idea where the hat is at.
Any guesses for the letter "F"?

Our parent/teacher conferences went well on Thursday. Austin needs to work on recognizing his letters, but is average in everything he's been tested for.
I know he's absorbing something because he can do a lot of things he didn't know how to do at the beginning of the year.
He can now:
* Write his name unassisted and without looking at it to copy the letters.
* He can recite all the months of the year in order.
* Counts objects, recognizes the correct number and matches them together.
* Is learning how things rhyme with each other. He tries to rhyme all the time.
* Recognizes some upper and lower case letters. And even knows the sound they make.
There are more, but I can't seem to think of them now. He's done well, and has only had one color change for his behavior. He got a green smiley face last week for hitting others with his lunch box. Apparently he wasn't the only one so that makes me feel a little better. Still doesn't make it right, but we had a discussion about it when we got home.
Overall, we just need to work on recognizing letters. We bought some flash cards and some work books so he can practice.
Tomorrow is picture day. It should be interesting to see how they turn out!
