I count 10 sentences, which is about the grade-level expectation for free writing in 3rd grade according to my DS' teacher. His spelling shows that he has both a sense of phonics and what words look like. He's pretty clear on capitals and periods.

This is the first half of kindergarten, at which point the rest of the class is working on words like 'the' and 'and', right? He could stagnate, at which point he'd be fine but not stellar in 2nd, or he could continue doing this sort of thing (fainting a little here...) voluntarily, and he'd be on the top side of good for a rising 2nd grader.
