Conference Season is Upon Us

It is that time of year when we have conferences with the boys' teachers. Tonight, we had a conference with oldest boys' teachers. This is always a nerve-racking experience because it is with his special education teacher and his 'regular' teacher.

We learned a lot about oldest. He is doing really well, he has adjusted really well. They are very pleased with him socially, academically and behaviorally. He still seems to have a small amount of 'learned helplessness'.

We also learned that his special education teacher has 'connected' with him. She allows him to add his 'Pixar' contributions and be okay with it. For example, she wants him to do calendar...if he is good, she'll let him mention that on November 18th "Wall-E" comes out (and how many days until that).
