Can I just say how much my son just loves his teacher this year? Granted he is only in second grade, but considering the teachers he has had in the past I am so glad he finally found one that has him motivated about school.
I have never seen H be so excited about reading. Mrs. W has lit a fire under him and he is ready to roll. I wouldn't say he didn't read or struggled with reading before however this year he has grabbed chapter books from the library and was so excited that he could get to chapter 5 in one day. He took it upon himself to read at daycare too. In the past I had to force him to read. I am glad for Mrs. W, she has touched him in a way that no one else can. At his school function when we were learning about the new reading program I had a moment to talk to her, I had tears in my eye telling her how much he has enjoyed school so far. That was only two weeks in. This year he has not asked me once to drop him off or pick him up at school. I didn't put the two together until recently talking to some co-workers.
I am excited to see how this year plays out with him, maybe instead of me worrying if he will pass there may not be as big of a worry for me this year. We will find out when the first parent teacher conference comes up as well as his report card.
