Awards Assembly

Q had his first awards assembly on Friday two recognitions and an award. He received a recognition for perfect attendance with no tardies (thanks to B who gets the sleepy little guy up every morning and to school on time), he received recognition for a "caught being good card" that he earned during recess and the award he received was an award for honesty and integrity. His teacher let us know about the awards assembly ahead of time by slipping a note into his going home folder that also let us know to keep it a secret. He was so surprised to receive his award and was excited that we were there to see him. He even went right up to receive his award and pose for pictures, he's grown up so much since the start of kindergarten just two months ago.

Reading

Q's kindergarten class started using the website Ticket to Read this week. Part of their homework is to log on and use the site for at least 30 minutes a week. The site is really cool, his teacher can go in and check how long each student spent on the website and see which lessons were completed. Q loves all the games and has learned so much.

Halloween

Halloween was so much fun!! Since Q started kindergarten this year, I thought for sure this would be the year that Q would switch from cute costumes to total boy costumes. We looked at costumes online, I thought he might go for iron man or maybe one of the super mario bros. I was so excited when he told me, he doesn't like those kinds if costumes. Since he loves rootbeer right now, I showed him a cute rootbeer bottle costume which he didn't like because he didn't want a straw coming out of his head. On the same site, he spotted this horse costume that he loved! This is probably my last year to enjoy little kid costumes, he's already told me he wants to be a vampire next year. He doesn't even know what a vampire is, he just loves wearing the fangs. Maybe he'll just wear a cute costume again with the fangs, that sounds like something he would do.
