Sorry, this is an old post but since I was looking at my pics, I realized I never shared these!
Our big girl Evie graduate from Kindergarten a few weeks ago. She had a great run at Newport Children's School - she loves the friends that she's made and really enjoyed all of the teachers she's had. We've liked them too! We're happy that we kept her there for one more year because I think she's learned a lot and is a much more confident little girl now, ready to take on first grade at a new school. The teachers had nothing but nice things to say about Evie when I went for the last parent-teacher conference of the year. They told me she's a bright, fun, easy-going girl who is friends with everyone in the class and not afraid to raise her hand in class to answer questions. I hope that continues next year! In Kindergarten, she mastered writing all of her letters and numbers (both upper and lower), can read pretty simple books (Level 1 and 2), is attempting to do cursive, can do simple addition and subtraction and counting by multiples.
Here's a few snaps of her Graduation ceremony. The kids were really cute and sang several songs that we've been practicing non-stop at home - Light My Way by Owl City and Try Everything by Shakira. Both have great lyrics and is very upbeat and age appropriate. Funny though that as much as Evie LOVES those songs, she couldn't look more bored singing on stage. Oh well, she really enjoyed the home-made apple pie afterwards to celebrate!
