First progress report & Kindergarten update

Look who brought home her first progress report today!  She is a satisfactory student and we are so proud!  She chose a Big Red Icee treat to reward her good behavior and learning!  She has really enjoyed her first (almost!) four weeks of Kindergarten.    It has been such a giant leap forward in the game of life.  It seems like she has grown up so much in such a short window of time.  


Emma has started eating breakfast at school with her little friends.  This makes for very early mornings but we are adjusting....slowly but surely!  She has to be in class by 7:50am to avoid being tardy.  She also eats cafeteria food for lunch and comes home talking about how delicious it is!  She has PE three times each week and has music/art or computers on the other days.  She strives for perfection and is always thrilled to receive an orange triangle (for best behavior) during lunchtime.  Her daily conduct folder is always great.  Ms. Thornton assigns each student a certain job for the day and Emma loves to be a helper!  Her very favorite class is recess and she also loves when Ms. T sends her down to the office to get the walkie talkie before the class goes outside.  She always plays school in the afternoons.  She loves school and even seems disappointed on weekends once she realizes there is no school (we shall see how long that lasts!).  Emma counts down the days to Friday....library day :)


Ms. Thornton added a sweet note on the bottom of her report.  Each time I see her she goes on and on about Emma's manners and good behavior.  Emma is very lucky to have Ms. Thornton.  She has been amazing and we are so thankful for her.  


Last week Emma brought home this good behavior punch card.  She was the first in her class to completely fill it up and got to pick something out of the class prize bucket!  Way to go Emma :)
