A daily dose of Ellie, Calvin, or both!

Two by two

Calvin was pretty excited about a couple recent lessons he got at school. The first being ironing. Yep, they iron at school all the towels and aprons and napkins after they are washed. Ironing is new at school and Calvin was the first to get the lesson. His teacher told me she wanted to teach him first because he is attentative and follows directions well...hence a great first kid to teach a lesson to. 

The second lesson he was excited about was his lesson on counting by twos without the chains. He wanted to go straight to a paper, but all kids start on a chalkboard because it’s easier to correct mistakes. Apparently he made none and insisted he could have gone to the paper first. He needed a little help getting from 8 to 10, but that was all the help he needed until he got to the 200 paper and needed some slight guidance to go from 108 to 110. His teacher said that he was the first student who didn’t need help going from 98 to 100. Within his first two days of his counting by twos lesson he did the 300 paper (0-300) without any mistakes. He was super proud of himself as he should be. 



And appreciate early Nick had fun at the ‘hawks game last night with his cousin Jordan.
