Here is Katie with her new Kindergarten teacher, Mrs.
Dashman. She originally started with another teacher, but knowing how bright Katie is and that this teacher got rave reviews, Andy and I met with the principal and switched her. I am so happy I did. This teacher has really stepped up to the plate with our super smart kiddo and is working with us to further her brilliance (can't say I'm biased huh?)
She has great
plans in store and is having Katie work on her very own book to read to the class and is wanting to stretch Katie with having her write notes and leave them i books i the classroom. The reason being that when someone picks that book to read, they will find the note from Katie telling why that is her favorite book, or a question that Katie has written about it and then they will either read the book and tell Katie the answer, or Katie will read it to
them and they will discuss it. My very own little daughter book club.
Meanwhile I
continue to
home school to supplement what she is learning.
Katie rode the school bus and boy was she excited to go. Baker was sad until a kind bus driver took pity on him (helps that he has a cute face, a high voice and that no one ever says no to him :) ) But the bus lady let him ride along with Katie. Sitting next to his sissy was a huge deal and he fell in love with school.

How fun for Katie! I really hope you love Mrs Dashman as much as we did!! She was great for Tyler. I just realized, Tyler and Katie would make some pretty brilliant babies one day....(wouldn't that be a crack up!!) GINA
