It’s that time of the school year again for parent teacher conferences. Lucky for us my daughter’s was cancelled by her teacher and she’ll reschedule for another date. I’m not too concerned anyway about the conferences as much as I was in the past. She seems like she’s making more improvements and she’s more confident. Granted, she does have an IEP so these conferences are pretty much pointless because her homeroom teacher only has her for 40% of the time but we also get to meet with her learning spport teacher.
She had a speech delay until about 6 and then suddenly she was speaking clearer and able to sound out words while reading etc. She even improved her bahavior toward others. I dreaded parent teacher conferences when she was younger because they would always bring up some odd behavior like biting or hugging people to much. She was a crazy kid when she had speech barriers. Now she seems to be doing great. At least I can understand 99% of what she says.
She definately seems more confident in school work as well as socializng so I’m happy. My little girl is growing up so fast! Although I will say that eight year olds are a bit sassy!
Hi. I was just online and I happen to come across your page. I just wanted to tell you that I, also have a 8year old girl. She too, had problems in school. So I know how you feel. She seems to be moving in the right direction tho. Which is good.
There is a question I hope you don’t mind me asking. I see one of your TAGS it, “adapting to change”. I’m a single mother and I just wanted to know how you brought someone into your daughters life?
