Its down to business now!

Travis came home with a folder full of STUFF yesterday. Each day...he has a folder that goes to/from school. It has his behavior log/homework log (beginning in October) and any other important information. If we have anything we need to send to his teachers, it goes in the folder.

Now that the first week is over, it is down to business. this week they are working on printing their first name using one capital letter for the first letter adn lowercase for the rest. That's a big deal for him. He came home yesterday and practiced. He's only ever written in all uppercase for us. Also, They are practicing drawing people with details...NO STICK FIGURES. I can't wait to see those drawings.

For those that are on the edge of their seats wanting to know (ahem...Pauline) ....here is the routine for his class:

Every day of the week, they see a different specialist.

Monday: Library (woohoo gets to check out books...he's so excited)
Tuesday: computer lab (loved that yesterday)
Wednesday: P.E. (he was a little bit perturbed that he couldn't wear sandals today but had to wear sneakers) OH and his PE teacher is a "hottie" according to his daddy so we are fully expecting him to love her. ;o)
