Adventures in parenting, vol. 3

Big Brother on his first birthday.





Our visit to the primary school yesterday:  interesting and encouraging, I think.  The Big Brother was somewhat nervous, as one might expect, couldn't sit still in his chair, etc. . . but he did get a sunglasses silly band for his trouble.

It was strangely reassuring to walk past the school office on our way out and see a grumpy looking man in a tie standing at the counter.  Every school I was in had a grumpy man in a tie somewhere in the main office.

Anyway.

Below, a partial list of words we're supposed to be working on for this year in Kindergarten (one of the handouts Ms. T gave us had a long list of them):





me
you
he
she
it
up
down
the
blue
red
green
yellow
one
two
three
four
(etc.)


okay.  So now that we're done with that, what next?

We're apparently going to be doing D'nealian Handwriting.  I guess he'll have to learn to do his J's pointing the proper direction.
