Caterpillar died and teacher reviews





oh so sad, the tiny guy we found when he was a quarter of an inch and made it to about an inch and then he kaputted!

I had the teacher reviews and for ike, he is now confirmed a leftie, he is the only leftie in a class of 20. He is progressing well but lacks the confidence to speak up in show and tell. Maybe cos nate does many things for him he tries to wriggle out of being compared or to do them? He does however veer toward adult company and can talk alot in english (lacking confidence in chinese) and the teachers notice he pulls his arms up to his chest whenever he is nervous.

As for Nate, I have another review today with the homeroom teacher but the review with his chinese teacher was quite good, he is doing well, he likes chinese spelling and to date has had only perfect scores which I need to tell him that making mistakes are good too as you learn alot more there. His handwriting is still rather poor but when it comes to spelling he knows an extra stroke makes the character different so he is very careful and neat there. hmmm.

The boys have picked out their hanukka presents and are counting down... I find pistol and jake often in the boys room, sleeping there at night, since their door isn't closed... sneaky!
