Kayson Kindergarten Winter Conference

Last night we had Kayson's Winter conference at school.  He was all excited saying "It's going to be a great day - it's conference day!!"  I thought that was hilarious and awesome at the same time!  I'm thrilled that he was looking forward to it that much... and it only made us know that he's doing well.  :)

And he is.

Mrs. White said he's doing great... no worries academically.  He's exceeded at reading, writing, spelling, and even starting on math.  She said he'll be ready for 1st Grade with no problems.  This is great to hear!

She showed us some neat stuff - like comparing what he was doing just in the Fall:

• Writing - he's improved on how he makes his letters and just even the size of the letters.
• Spelling - improved on how he puts letters together for a word.  He would 'miss' some letters, but now he has them included.
• Reading - instead of 'flying' through the words... he now knows to pause at the right spots.  Next they'll work on improving 'how' they read - using different sounds and showing excitement. He's currently reading at G Level - and has a early Reading score of 65. 

Overall, he did great - he was all giddy and loved being there, I could tell. 

Mrs. White is moving to 1st Grade position next year, still at Maple Grove, which is super exciting for her.  There's a possibility that she could be his teacher again.  That could be interesting.  ha.

We are very proud!!
