I knocked off early to be able to make the 4.30pm slot at the school. Amy had been to meet Sheena in sunny West Hampstead so that they could have a chat and baby M could get a chance to play with Xanthe.
When I arrived at Catford, Amy was to be found in Little Brazil(her second home it seems!). I had lovely cuddles with Mia while we waited. We walked up to the school together and while waiting in the activity room we looked through Jake’s course work so far. The progression is amazing. He is writing letters and words, making pictures and generally doing really well.
Our talk with Mrs Hughes went very well. Jake loves it at school and likes to learn new things. He is doing well with his letters but we must also help practice writing his numbers. It is this area that he is doing amazingly well. Mrs Hughes told us that when she was showing the class the number seven he put up his hand and said “I know two ways of making a seven, four and three or five and two!”. Mrs Hughes told us this was incredible for a child his age. We were so proud. Our son a little maths genius :-).
