Hi youse.....ive finally got something to say other than,well,hi youse !!!
Im just back from Matthew(DS7) parents afternoon.
While i didnt go full of fear ,cos Matthew himself was so laid back about it(jeez i remember being scared for weeks before mine,but i guess thats a whole other story) i am just blown away !!
I knew he is doing very well academically,there is group of 6 (Matthew being one) from both P3 classes who they had to fix new work schedules for because they are pretty much working to an age group higher.His teacher said he's is very involved in all the work,very instumental in all the lessons and takes his work seriously.All good and just what you want to hear...............
Then she started to talk HIM.
Polite,thoughtful,considerate,kind,confident,level headed and a joy to teach.
She said he has a place in the class of being the go to guy for help or if theres any arguements or disagreements he will step in cos in her words " he sees the bigger picture" ...pretty cool for a seven year old.
She also said he spends alot of his free time helping the kids who struggle with their work.This really really pleased me.
Now i know we all see our kids how we want to see them so hearing someone else praising him is soooooooooo awesome.I actually got teary eyed at one point!!!!
I dont know if this is the kind of thing youse talk about i just wanted to share............x
