Ben picked me to take him to Parent's Night at his Montessori last night. He got to give me a tour of his classroom and some of the different projects he's been working on. Initially he had a hard time warming up to the idea, possible because there was so many unfamiliar adults in the room, but once he did warm up he was excited to show me everything to the point that he didn't want to go home. Some of his projects included, rubber stamping, scooping aquarium pebbles from one bowl to another, separating magnetic items from non-magnetic items, shape and color stackers and much more. I was kind of surprised he wasn't very interested in showing me the number of animals in his class, two of which are a gecko and a tarantula. My favorite project was probably his demonstration of window washing. He explained, "squirt once, do this (use squidgy), wipe once". I asked if he would do that chore for me at home (considering the door wall window is always filthy), but he quickly replied – no.
Parent Teacher conferences are Thursday night. We're very eager to hear what his teacher has to report. So far though he's able to write B-e without any assistance. I'm sure n is soon to follow.
