Monday

Every Monday I help out in Jaron's classroom. It is really a lot of fun. All the kids in Jaron's class are so cute! Part of what I do is help out when they do stations. The children are divided into 4 different groups. Each group works at a different level. My station is the green table and I always have the advanced group first. Today, Jaron came to my table first with the advanced group. I didn't even know he had been moved up. I said "Buddy, I think you're at the wrong table." He said, "No, Mom, I'm in this group now." I am so proud of him. All that homework and practicing his reading, numbers, and sight words has paid off! Mrs. Ritter also has me read a story to the class so she can pull other students aside and test them. Every Monday the students write in their journals, she also has me pass out the journals and we talk about what they did over the weekend. Today she gave me a great compliment. Mrs. Ritter said, " I wish you were here every day." It made me feel so good. I'm so glad I can be there to help out. So, thank you Jacob for making it possible for me to stay home and be there for Jaron and his class. I appreciate you so much!
