As you may know he is the very youngest in his Grade. He started Grade 1 at just 6 years old last year - as his birthday is on 3 January and a school readiness assessment deemed him ready... still he was by far the youngest kid in the school and there were some concerns over this... especially with regard to his writing skills and general Occupational Therapy-type issues.
(I wrote about it here, and here, and here and here, and here, and here and here and here ...you get the idea.) ;)
Well he is now half way through Grade 2 (noting that some of the Grade 1s are even older than him) and is doing great! We are waiting for his official school report next week, but he has come home with not 1, not 2 but 3 achievements this week. Smile
He got the Merit badge and certificate this week at assembly for 'Beautiful neat hand writing and neat pattern work'.
Then he got the 'Good Thinking' certificate for 'Doing Good Maths'
AND he got sent to the head master's office to show off his work books to get praised accordingly and get a lollipop.
I am thrilled with him. He really enjoys school and I knew he was ready and we couldn't keep him back.
In other news, he also lost his third tooth this week.
It's been a big week for him!
WTG Quinn!!!! He is doing so so so well. That is really amazing
