Finishing First Grade

Last Thursday marked the end of First Grade for Avery. I couldn't have been happier with her progress this year. She had the best teacher, Mrs. Bradford, and a class of the sweetest boys and girls. Since I am a huge math geek, I was so proud when Avery learned to love math and even joined math club. She also came full circle from Kindergarten when she refused to check out books at the library to being excited for library day on Thursdays so she could check out new books. I love that she finally started to enjoy reading. We are still working on her writing, but she made significant improvements from the beginning of the year.

Yesterday, we went to summer school open house and Avery couldn't be more excited to finally have her BFF, Addi, in her class! She also has two of our other neighbors in her class so it should be a fun month for her.
