Checking In

I love temper tantrums! Zander is sitting right next to me screaming at the top of his lungs because he is not getting his way. There is no better way to ignore him than to blog. I can't believe Dresden is sleeping through this.

There is so much to share, but there is a time and a season.

School is going well. I just sent out report cards for last term. I had a mom ask me if they were the final grades. I thought that was funny. Especially when I post all the grades on an online program where they can view their grades all term. The student's grade shouldn't be a surprise. I even sent out a progress report this week to let them know how they are doing this term already. We are in the third week of this term. I had five e-mails from parents telling me that their Reading University grade couldn't be right. I record the minutes exactly as the parents write on the student's learning plan. I let those parents know that I will recheck the learning plans to see if the minutes weren't recorded correctly. It was amazing, the next day all the learning plans for this week included reading minutes and were signed.
