On Monday, we reviewed the jobs vocabulary and talked about what we want to be when we grow up.

On Tuesday, we did phonics and read "Ann and Nick," a story about a girl and her seeing eye dog. We talked about what it means to be blind.

On Wednesday, we read "Stan's Stunt" and did exercises from our reading workbook. We read "The Raft" and illustrated our own version of the story.

Andrew's reading is very good but he needs to pay better attention in class. He wants to be a cowboy and firefighter when he grows up.

Aston wants to be a superhero and a teacher. He talks a lot during class (when he shouldn't be talking) and had to face the wall for not paying attention in class.

Benson has been pretty quiet in class this week; good written work though. He wants to be a banker and a baker when he grows up.

Eason wants to be a bad guy when he grows up, and he wants to be a doctor.

Gwen has been showing a lot of improvement with her phonics. She still tends to talk too much and not pay attention; she has to exercise more self-control. She wants to be a doctor when she grows up.

Henry has been having a lot of trouble seeing the board, which is hurting his learning. He needs to see an eye doctor and get glasses. He wants to be a king when he grows up so then he can be safe and eat a lot.

Irene is really good at grasping new concepts and applying them. She wants to be a policeman and an actor when she grows up.

Leo tends to act too quickly - e.g. jumping out of his chair, running up to the teacher, calling out the answer. He needs to exercise some self-control. He wants to be a banker and a doctor when he grows up.

Phil has trouble with grammar and fill in the blanks. His reading is generally good though. He wants to be a baker and a banker when he grows up.

Yoyo is still a very slow worker in class. He understands the material but has difficulty focusing compared to the other students. He didn't get to do the "When I grow up" assignment because he had to leave at 6:45.
