Mackenzie's teacher is stumped again! Despite Mackenzie's time with the gifted and talented teacher, Mrs. Solliday notices that Mackenzie still isn't being challenged enough in class, especially during reading. The kids will be doing their mid-year assessments and, after those are complete, Mrs. Solliday would like to work out a routine for Mackenzie to spend reading hour with the 1st graders. Truth be told, Mackenzie's reading level is well beyond first grade, too, but I fear the age gap between she and the second graders might be a bit much for her at this point. Both Mike and I love to read. Mike was always advanced in school and I myself was always sent to reading with the kids a few grades ahead.
As if we couldn't be any more proud of her, we got this note home from her art teacher and the assistant prinicipal: ( click to enlarge )
The note proclaims that Mackenzie is always a model student, always respectful and her teacher is blessed to have her in her class. The assistant principal added that Mackenzie is a diamond in the school's treasure box! She was so proud of herself and we of her!
Art is one of Mackenzie's favorite things. She spends much of her time at her desk drawing and creating things. This is one of my recent favorites:
