We get a newsletter every week that has the 6 curriculum topics on it, and the activities they will be doing. Thats my wake up call every week...when i see in black and white what most kids would be learning this year. 2 examples;
'to be able to write name copying from a name card'
'use language like heavier/lighter/small/big'
I find it amusing too that for all my reading i know that he isn't average but i still won't believe it.
EW - I'd love to volunteer but i also have a nearly 2yr old DD and i have no one to watch her. I have a opportunity to go see his class tomorrow for 30mins (there is a book fair - i'm not sure why we have been invited to see them?). So i'm going to go.
The hour after school is ok, fun and he likes doing it. We have always done things like this so i'm not able to say that it makes a difference.
