Olive is having a great time in first grade. She has the same teacher that Hannah had (well, one of them) and they get along great. There are 19 kids in her class- 11 boys and 8 girls. One of her best friends from last year is in her class again and she has made lots of new friends, too. She is still in speech class and after school she does tap and ballet once a week.
Her favorite special is library and her favorite subject is math. Her reading has really taken off and now she is reading chapter books! More surprisingly, she is really into math. She has never shown much interest in it before and was more of a reading/writing girl. She has memorized all the addition/subtraction math facts (on her own) and her number sense is amazing. The math series this year is very difficult and she is one of the few kids that understands it. She also really enjoys science and engineering projects. She is always designing something!
From her first quarter report card: "Olive has a happy and cooperative attitude. She is progressing nicely in all academic areas. She is beginning to include more details to her daily journal writing. Olive has a strong number sense. She is quick to see patterns and does very well in math. Olive is a good listener and works well independently. She gets along with others and I am happy to have her in my class.
