He kicked out his shoes today!

First time, Ms. Gibbs told him not to cuz you will lost your shoes!

And moments later, he did it again and this time, he kicked his shoe away to the back of the cupboard. So, he had to deal w/ himself to ask Ms. Gibbs to help him to find out the shoe. Luckily Ms. Gibbs helped him to move the cabinet and get the shoe out!

Later in Charlene's class, he lost his focus again. And he kept disturbing other kids while doing things in his own way. Charlene even said that he is spoiled other's quality time in reading!

I am so mad at him!

I must share that every time I see Lawrence in the school day (and I see him around the building when I work with other kids as well), he looks so happy this year! It's so nice to see him enjoying himself :) He always greets me with a smile and I love that he brings in something special to share with me. Today he brought in a magic school bus book and taught me all about bones ;) I'm really seeing him spread his wings this year!

He did marvelously during our lesson today, which was on listening skills--more specifically, paying attention when someone else is listening. I asked him how he could tell I was listening to him when he was telling me about his book, and he was able to tell me (with a only a little prompting from me) that I used my ears, I looked at him, I paid attention to him, I was interested in him, and that I asked him questions about what he was telling me. We then had an activity where we took turns "interviewing" each other, practicing our listening to others skills. Lawrence got a bit silly during this activity, but I could tell he did listen to what I was saying. Good job today Lawrence!
