- Math is going well. Audrey is starting to grasping number bonds
- Audrey is a great speller, and she is reading to us a lot and really doing great. According to the graded readers she is reading at a 3rd grade level.
- We worked on memorizing a new poem this week and found a way to make it more fun!
- Both girls passed into a new level at swim class. Audrey swam the long direction of the pool for her test, and is now learning roll over breaths, and standing dives. Lorelei swam 7 feet alone using both arms and legs to pass her test, and is now learning windmill arms and stream lining.
