Happy Friday everyone and it couldn't have come sooner for all of us who have been hard at work on the school performance. Treehouse is buzzing with excitement for next Wednesday, so don't forget your cameras because we have some adorable acts for you to enjoy.
This week we had our frist dress rehersal and it went fairly well. Everyone tried very hard and it seemed to pay off in the end.
Sunny did well this week. She memorized her lines and payed attention during rehersals. I noticed this week she was very helpful to her classmates.
Esther has been enthusiastic about her role in the school production. I love her positive attitude. I have heard her say many times this week: "I love being the Mongoose, and I love the stage!"
Lauren's behaviour has improved over the last week. She seems less tempermental and she is controlling her outbursts. Keep it up Lauren! Also, I noticed while we were doing paper-folding that she was very focused and barely needed help at all making complex folds.
Lily has been working very hard this week. She has a lot of lines to remember and she is doing very well during the rehersals. I am very impressed with her enthusiasm. During classtime however, I feel that Lily rushes through her work at times so that she can be first to finish, and as a result she makes unnecissary mistakes. I would like to encourage her to slow down while she is doing her work.
Frank makes a very cute Antelope! Frank is always a joy to have in class and he constantly makes me smile. His English is improving all the time and he is a very focused boy. He seems to really enjoy art and his fine motor skills are impressive. He did very well during our paper-folding class today, and remained focused and followed directions. Way to go Frank!
Jerry is a joy to have in class but he is a bit unfocused sometimes. He has a tendency to ask a questionm and then not listen to the answer. This means that he often asks the same questions several times. Despite this small problem Jerry is a sociable and delightful student.
I have not had as much time with my afternoon kids this week due to the graduation production. I am looking forward to returning to regular afternoon classes. This week Carson, Eliza, Trisha, and Henry showed their maturity as they worked independently on finishing their workbooks. I also gave them a small writing assignment on Thursday. I asked them to write "a day in the life of..." I gave them a list of objects to choose from and then asked them to describe what it would be like to live a day in the life of that object. The responses turned out to be quite creative and I was pleased at their imagination during this creative excersise.
I am looking forward to seeing all the parents on Wednesday night and I know the kids are very excited to finally show you all their hard work! See you soon!! Have a great weekend!!
