Back to School- Meet the teacher!

Ty is now entering his 2nd year of school. Not second GRADE but preschool part 2! We have one more year but this year we made some changes.

First change: New Teacher. While his teacher last year was very good. She was even better with the older of the preschoolers. Ty was put in a class with 3-6 year olds. While he held his own, he was not doing the best he could be doing. We made some hard choices and put him in a different class. This year he is going to be in the Discovery Preschool.

Pros:

Less kids. His current class as 4 kids and an aide. Ty is able to walk in the class room and will attend a few activities with the other 4 year old class as he gets going.

Great teacher. Miss Janet is really good and she is currently VERY aware of Ty's...hmmmm STUBBORNNESS. Yes that is right. They have discovered that MY son is Stubborn. He must get that from his dad!

Speech will be with him for one full class period. Well not JUST him but the whole 4 kiddos in the class. Last year he was taken out of class and had 9 kids in the whole class. Not a lot of one on one that will hopefully get him going.

So far the only CON I see is time. Its EARLY. His bus picks him up at 7 am.... yeah.. 7.

So for the first day of school we have to be up bright and early, feed, clothed and on a BIG YELLOW BUS around 7. Lots of prayers that MOM can hold up!

Meet the teacher

Well, since he likes to wake up early it should be good for him. But since Mom doesn't like to get up early, not good for her. My advice, Mom can sleep when he leaves on the bus. Just be sure to be back up when he returns. And he might be ready for a nap when he gets home.
