Don't forget about the quiz on Monday!!

The class is doing very well especially in science class. The class has lots of questions and have fun with the activities we do when completing our workbook pages. They are very good at learning new words, but they have some trouble making sentences in the right tense. I have done and will continue to do more extra work on their verb tenses so they know when to use which tense.

Harrison has been able to keep up with his classmates pace of work. He is finished as the others are finished. It's during reading time when he has trouble following along. I will continue to work with him on this.

Joe's work in class in great. The one thing he has to work on is his hand writing. A little more care will go a long way.

Ashley does well in class.The next step for her is paragraph writing and organizing thought together to form a paragraph with one idea.

Shawn had a great week and does very well with his VOC and spelling.

Richard the next step for him is paragraph writing and organizing thought together to form a paragraph with one idea.

Ben is mature for his age and is a responsible student with good habits.

Jordan had a good week and contributes a lot to our class discussion by asking a lot of good questions.

Great work this week in class. We did much better understanding and remembering the meanings of the new words we learned. The class was very interested in our science lesson and is especially interested about the theory of evolution.

Jordan was quite well behaved this week. Only the occasional outburst. Im pleased with his overall academic performance as well.

Joe was also quite well behaved this week. One day this week Joe was quite tired but other than that he was able to participate in all our class activities.

Harrison was caught fiddling with things this week and he learns noticably less when he is playing with something.

Ashley was great this week and does well in all areas.

Richard has a great understanding of the things that we talk about in class even before we talk about it, and therefore, has much to contribute to class discussions.

Ben seems to enjoy himself in class, he always sits at the front and always pays close attention.

Sean does well in class but should be careful not to get caught up in the antics of some of the other students.

This week went much smoother than the last. The students are getting used to my teaching style and we are begging to establish a rythm in the class. They especially seemed to enjoy the Grammar and Science lessons this week. I'm sure the more they enjoy the classes, the more they will learn.

Sean was very participatiive this week and has much to contribute to class discussions.

Ben is a quiet student but it is clear that he is attentive since is often able to answer even the most difficult questions with ease.

Richard is well spoken and a hard worker. He is a good example to the rest of the class.

Ashley's work is very good. She is able to focus well in class.

What a remarkable difference one week has made for Harrison. He did very well understanding this weeks Science lesson. he was very interested in it.

Joe's pay close attention in class and is eager to give answers. He has good leadership skill and tries to get his peers to focus in class. Although, on some occasions, he does the exact opposite of that. I would like him to try and work a bit harder on his handwriting.

Jordan pays attention in class and answers questions posed to him well. He has alot of energy and a good sense of humor, but if he is not careful, that same sense of humor could get him into some trouble.

First Week!

Hello Parents! We had a great first week at school and I had a great time getting to know your children. They are fun and interesting to talk to. In class we read a story about a boy and his father that bonded on a trip to a deserted lake in the wilderness. In grammar we learned about different kinds of sentences; statements, commands, questions, requests and exclamations. In science, we learned about micro-organisms, plants and animals and their cells. We also reviewed the different parts of a cell. Next week we will use our microscopes to see what we learned.

Ashley seems like a very sharp student.

Joe has a wonderful sense of humor.

Jordan likes to have a good time, but has been able to balance fun and work.

Harrison does very good work when he puts his mind to it.

Shawn contributes a lot to class discussions.

Richard is able to answer very difficult questions.

Ben is well behaved and eager to learn.

I look forward to seeing all of these children progress!
