Progress Report

Teagan got her very first school report yesterday.  I was very excited to actually see what she knew as she doesn't really show/tell us all that she does at school. I know she knows a lot more than she lets on.
The report was 3 pages long. It is divided into 3 categories: physical development, skill development, and social/emotional development.  There are 4 "grading" numbers they use 1-4. 1:area of concern, 2:needs development, 3:age appropriate, and 4:exceeds expectations.  About 98% of Teagan's were 3 and 4's. I was very impressed. It is SO funny that at home she gets in the most trouble for being mean to Emmersyn, but at school she scored mostly 4's in the emotional development and caring for others section. HA
She does need to work on a few "skill" development areas. She got four 2's in that category, but some of it I didn't know she needed to know to work on, such as her street address and phone number.  Another big area of work this month for us at home will be numbers.
Overall, I am very happy with her report. I know there will always be things my kids excel in and there will also be areas they struggle with. I think that is human nature and I'm trying not to stress about it. She is 3 and has TONS of school ahead so I just want her to have fun and be age appropriate at this point. I also like that it shows me where to focus my time at home, too. Not to sound like a bad mom, but I don't want to waste my time teaching her something she already knows! HA.
