Narrative Report
Period Covered: September 8 to September 12, 2008
By Teacher Cristy
Griffin continues to do very, very well in our reading exercises and is in fact one of our top readers (considering that he is the youngest in class). While he continues to use picture cues on words like smile, sticker, hear ... he can easily read words like bee, tree, bus, go leaf ... and as we read about "green", he was quick to say "that's my mommy's favorite color.
He patiently put seeds on the letters of his name and participated in our flower arranging activity without hesitation. When we had a planting activity though, he has reservations about touching the roots and when asked to scoop soil into the pot, his initial comment was "it's gross!"; but eventually did so when his turn was called, when he saw that he didn't need to hold the soil with his bare hands but use a small shovel instead.
He answers his worksheets easily but is sometimes careless - he says out the correct answer but encircled the wrong one. When he realizes that he made a mistake, he asks that it be erased at once, and tries very hard not to be overly anxious. When asked to write his name at the bottom of his worksheet, he always asks "Can I just write in big letters first?" He still needs a little more practice in writing "Griffin".
He has been extra active during outdoor play, throwing balls, running, going up and down, pounding on the walls ... Enzo, Colin and Zach continue to be his playmates. They always want to show the girls they do things better. :)
