Parent Conference!

Todd and I had a parent conference set up with Sam's teacher this afternoon. Being the teacher is new, set up conferences with all the parents of course at different times. She wanted to go over a few things with us about how Sam is doing in school and if he needs help in any areas at home.

She also wanted to know how he was at home and if he understood the things he needed to do and so on. We as parents had no concerns and or problems with him at home. She had some papers printed out with grades, AR score sheet and other things for our view and to bring home.

First she showed us where he was as far as his grades go and he's a straight "A" student at this time. He's the only child in class with the higher AR points in reading, he also along with the class was tested for something called Fare/Fair? And he tested highest in the class. The top 5 children are all boys. She said he's smart, cute, loves to learn and loves it when she reads to him. She said what ever we're doing with him at home, we need to continue that because he's a good boy, just like Rick Scott!!..lol.

The only thing she really said he needed help on was that when he's speaking in class, sometimes he speaks to fast and he forgets what it is he's saying and that frustrates him, but that he always on focus. He looks right at her every time when she's speaking, she can tell that he's here to learn and not to play.

She said she's an expert on high IQ's and feels Sam has a very high one. So, we have decided to have him tested...for gifted and see what happens. Hey if he is, it will help him out middle school big time.
