We wondered how much she was really learning at this school versus the school we had her in, as she doesn't seem to come home with as many worksheets and letter tracing sheets like she did at her other school *(everyday she came home with them at New Vistas). But she does come home with a cute craft everyday. See below:
About a month or so ago we walked in the kitchen where Ella was doodling and saw that she had learned to write her name. Here was the paper that we (dorks) took photos of! LOL
She also has been drawing a lot lately. We were surprised to see that while doodling at the kitchen counter she drew actual people. Not even stick figures but real people with real bodies and eyes, ears, nose, mouth and even hair! She seemed to skip right over the stick figure phase. See below:
Jimmy and I thought one of us must have helped her and so we asked her to do it again and got in on video. (yes like I said we are dorks- lol)
She has made so many friends at school. She really took to this girl named Kassidy (who actually lives in our neighborhood and has a super nice Mom so score for us) and a girl named Megan and another named Mackenna. It was so cute to see them running up to each other and saying hello, greeting each other by name like little ladies. And Mackenna would always say Hi Ella's Mommy and Hi Ella's Baby Sister to me and Ryen. So cute! Ella loves her teacher Ms Priscilla and is hoping to be in her class when the new session starts in January. BUT I am NOT allowed to call her BELLA anymore (which has been my nickname for her for a long time) because she had a Bella in her class. So every time I slip she corrects me and says "Mommy- I'm not BELLA anymore I'm Ella!" ...sigh
