Parent teacher night...Parker
He's been doing very well in her eyes, being able to stay in his group, getting his work done, very rarely redoing something, and getting out for recess instead of doing work. I also found out he does get center time, but it is only once a week...kids who have not completed their weekly assignments gets to catch-up or have free play time if they are finished. He's not the only one. About the math test, she defends what she did..so we agreed to disagree...she is fully aware I did not think that was right. Maybe she will think about it after I left, and hopefully takes into consideration my view. She was sad to hear I requested the other teacher, and I explained that I am familar with that teacher, and just felt that with the fun, less stress and less pressure he might do better. Plus they have the piano and he loves music, and that the teacher makes a point of having lots of creative things like the Humpty Dumpty breakfast and dress-up. But after giving it more thought, he is doing well, and he really likes her and she is handling the curriculum differently...so we decided to let the principal know on Mon...everything is fine and he is okay to stay. She never did get back to me anyways, and I have no idea if she came to a decision. Thanks to everyone for giving me the courage to speak to her. I still had a few tears to fight back and thankfully hubby was there to back me up. I am happy to have spoken up and tell her how we really feel. Now we can only hope something positive came from it. I came away with a better feeling towards her, and she does care about him. |

| I'm glad things seem to be going better. You are just at the beginning of the ups and downs of watching your kids grow. But what a good mom you are, at least Parker has a mom who cares. Some kids aren't that lucky. |
| Thank you I appreciate that...made me smile. This has definitely been a learning process...I mean kids in general, you have to adapt to so many new situations it get overwhelming sometimes.
I'm just glad I can bounce off ideas here. |

I really felt for you when you wrote about the situation with Parker and his teacher. I can see all sides , from a parents view, teachers and yes even the childs! I'm really glad that things went good with the teacher and you all were able to talk about it. You're a good mom and I'm sure Parker knows it! Marianne and the boys |
