report card

Ella brought home her first report card today, with all good marks. Her teacher wrote, "Ella is a sweet, cooperative and involved student. She has an excellent attitude and always takes pride in her work. Ella appears to enjoy school and is well-liked by her peers. In reading, she is reading texts with repetitive patterns to promote sight word recognition and to learn strategies to decode unknown words . . . She has demonstrated a solid grasp of all math concepts presented. I am very pleased with Ella's progress. She is a real joy to have in class."

We let Ella choose where we would have a celebratory dessert. She chose Dunkin' Donuts and selected a delicious cake donut with pink frosting. Lauren opted for the chocolate frosted donut with candy hearts.  Ah, the sweet rewards of academic success.

Congratulations, Ella! You are a great student, and we're so proud of you.
