Cannon's Fall Conference

Conference time is upon us and I will lead 26 conferences and attend one.

Today I attended Cannon's conference with his Early Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Jewell.



The first thing she mentioned was how much she enjoyed having Cannon in class and how he was a 'thinker' and 'loves to learn.'

Cannon is doing well in all areas and is a leader in the class.  He is independent and enjoys class.


In reading he knows his letters and sounds, as well as the required sight words.  Cannon's reading group is on Unit 8 in Kindergarten Read Well and 'moving quickly' according to Mrs. Jewell.  Chris and I enjoy listening to Cannon practice his stories at home and are impressed by how many new words he knows.

Cannon has improved his writing from the beginning of the school year to now.  He has moved from drawing pictures, to using more detail in his pictures and writing words and sometimes even sentences about his picture.  He can hear the beginning, middle and ending sounds in words!

In math, Cannon scored well in all areas and does a great job counting, patterning, and composing/decomposing numbers.

We are so very proud of Cannon's success!  He is working hard, cares about his learning and continues to make progress.

Enjoying every moment.
