Presley had her 2nd grade conferences last night. This was the first year that she has gone with us but her teacher Ms. Lynch requested that the kids come. Normally I like to see what the teacher has to say without Presley being right there but it went good! We were able to see a little hint of what Presley is like in school (since she is SO different at home vs. around other people vs. at school!!)
The one thing that Presley indicated that she needs to work on is being neat and taking her time. Ms. Lynch said she doesn't notice that but I think that is something that we had issues with in 1st grade and do at home when she hurries thru things.
Presley's reading score was 497 and they are supposed to be at 486 by the end of 2nd grade, so she is doing awesome with her reading!
Her math is doing pretty good also, but we need to work on subtraction. She does so good but she needs to be able to do 30 problems in 2 minutes and she hasn't got there yet. She loves practicing at home so we'll just keep doing more of that!
Ms. Lynch said that Presley is nice, polite, kind to others, is helpful and does a good job participating! (WHAT???) So that is awesome to hear that she is a good, respectful child at school even though she might not be all the time at home! HA!
We can tell that Presley is enjoying 2nd grade much more than 1st grade. She loves learning, she gets excited about doing new or different things in school. It is such a great feeling to listen and watch your child thrive on learning!
