Dress up time
Maxwell brings home a binder from school each day and if he misbehaves, the teacher will sign it with a note about what the behavior problem was. He made it until January 11 without having it signed (pretty great!).
I called the teacher afterward to talk to her about it because I've noticed that he's having a hard time staying focused like when he's at Kindermusik or waiting in lines. My concern is that he is bored at school, not being challenged, and thus he's starting to act out. His teacher pretty much dismissed my concerns and said that she hasn't noticed anything difference about Maxwell's behavior lately. I've been asking her to challenge him more since the second week of school and nothing has really come of it. It's frustrating. At this point, my take on it is that she is either uncomfortable with how she can challenge him or she just doesn't have the skills to do that for a child in her class. I can't wait for this school year to be over and hope for an awesome teacher next year. :( So much of what I have been told is that he is just only going to learn Kinder curriculum regardless of if he already has that knowledge. So, we will just keep trying to challenge him at home and keep him growing.
Mismatched dress up day at school.
Emmalyn snuck up stairs to watch tv and eat cereal with Landen.
Funny faces with mom at dinner
