Michael went back to school yesterday. He still complains of mild pain, also alot of itching (stitches healing) - we are treating with regular tylenol which he gets 3x/day, and that gets him through. He's such a trooper! He brought home 2 tests - one is a cumulative unit review and the other was math. He got 100% on both! Really proud of him!

Tess has been doing great with her reading and math skills. By the end of January, kindergarteners are expected to know and recognize numbers up to 20. Tess knows up to 100....thanks to the digital readout on our Cable TV box She has been sounding out words more and more.

Kelsey continues to bring home A's on all of her tests, with an occasional lower grade, but nothing that will affect her overall marking period grade. She is stressing a bit about her book report due next week on Michelle Kwan. She has to dress like her and give an oral report. She has an essay due next week 150-250 words on what freedom means to her. There's a science project due at the end of the month, which she already finished over Christmas break. She is looking forward to her birthday party on the 27th at the rock climbing gym, and her "real" birthday on the 30th!
