Week one of 1st grade!

Well, we made it through week one of first grade. It was a bit rocky as Joshua wanted to have a "break" from school after day two of school. The routine was a struggle for him to get used to again, but he made it through the first week and seems to be better this week as long as he gets adequate play time in at home after school. We worked on his math homework tonight, and then he got all of his spelling words right...other than turning a few letters backwards. We'll keep plugging away until he gets 100% before Friday. He was very excited that he figured out how to spell them all, and I was a bit surprised as well. For day one of learning the words, he was awesome! Way to go, Joshua!! You are doing great:) His reading has really blossomed over the Summer as well. He's reading much faster and getting the majority of the words on his own without help. Doing great! Keep it up:)
