Almost done with school


Joshua is very close to finishing another year of school, the 1st grade. He has done so well this year. In his favorite subject, math, he has learned his subtraction tables and addition tables. He can add three digit numbers together, which is his favorite. He has also learned about fractions and all different kinds of measurements. He loves it when we have "Thinking Caps," because they are questions which make him analyze and he loves trying to figure them out. I am very proud of him!

He has done very well with reading. He has read nine books in total and enjoys reading all of the different stories. He started writing in cursive this year and has done very well with that as well.

He learned about many famous men including George Washington, who I believe was his favorite. Currently we are learning about Martin Luther King Jr, and when we are finished learning about him Joshua wants to draw a picture of him. If I can I will scan it and put it on the blog.
Like I said earlier I am very proud of Joshua. He has done very well and enjoys learning. We have had our battles but with God we have overcome them. Joshua is anxious to learn new things in second grade, but he is first looking forward to a break so he can play with his best friend David.
