A mother has to brag sometimes............

Well, First grade has been exciting for us. I am definitely bragging on my little girl right now. A mother can and should do that from time to time.

Abby loves school and I am so proud of the things she has accomplished this year. Her class has 3 levels of reading groups. Abby took a reading test at the beginning of the year and was placed in the top group. She loves to read and reads all the time. As of her last evaluation she is reading on a 3.4 reading level which means she is reading at what an average 3rd grader in their 4th month of 3rd grade would be reading at. I was so proud when the school asked her if she would like to read passages during church and she said yes. She also received a Certificate for participating in Read Across America Day. She volunteered to read a Dr. Seuss book to some 6th graders.

Her next class she loves is Spelling. She hates writing her spelling words 3 times each on Monday nights but is really motivated to not misspell anything on her tests!

Her favorite classes are Christian Doctrine,Spelling, Music, Art, and PE! Who doesn't like PE! LOL

I just wanted to share with you some of her recent work, I am just a proud mom who wants to tell everyone to enjoy their kids school year. Those little papers with their handwriting on them are so precious and they are SOOOO proud of them!
