End of First Semester Narrative

We have just ended the school year's first semester. It has been a very busy one for everyone, with several activities in and out of school. Some of the children also had to prepare for "big" school exams - Griffin being one of them. There were times he had to do longer work periods to review and prepare for the test - which meant less time for play. Except for the initial frustrations and pressure he seemed to put on himself whenever he made a little mistake, it wasn't hard preparing him for his exams because he is a fast learner and a smart boy too. He has an excellent memory and answers worksheets well despite challenges he still encounters with writing. He expresses his thoughts and ideas like a little grown up and is really quite witty.

While he is still very playful and sometimes has difficulty to sit or stand still, he is always quick to settle down and focus once his attention is called. He is generally cooperative and responds well to adult direction and suggestions.

The second semester will be equally busy, with several special celebrations coming soon, and even more lessons to learn. I am sure Griffin and I, as well as the rest of the class will have many more adventures and fun learning experiences to share together.
