Parent Teacher Meeting!



Today was the day! We met with Mrs. Mitchell Joshie's kindergarten teacher. It was quite funny because the letter that came home stated that if you had concerns you could set up a time to meet with her or she would set up a time to meet you if she had concerns. Of course there was no concerns but we really wanted to see how Josh is doing! We went today at 1:15 and had a 15 minutes with the teacher. All is well in kindergarten world. He is right on target, slightly ahead with his letter recognition and counting but honestly the standards aren't very high. All they are asked to do at this point is count to 10, write their name and do a couple other letters. He is right in the middle with his peers. We were extremelyy curious to know how he was doing socially as there are many buddies in his class that know each other outside of school, and he did not know anyone. She said he is a confident boy who is not afraid to ask others to play but also chooses what he wants to do instead of clinging to certain peers. The big question was is he being silly or rude as we have seen this side at home or when I have been his teacher in Sunday school. Mrs. Mitchell made it very clear that there is absolutely no concern of him being rude or silly, she told us never to worry about that in regards to Josh. Just goes to show they save the best behavior for Mom and Dad ha ha!
