Well, Reece is officially in Pre-K! He is now on a color system that is mandated by the nazi's (oops meant teachers) of his class. Green is good, yellow is ok with a issue and red is really not good for Reece. So far we had a bit of a issue with him getting one yellow. It seems he likes to ignore the teachers and do his own thing, not unlike at home. However, we came up with a few changes of our own. First we told Ree that if he gets all greens throughout the week he gets something special at the end. This has worked not only for him but for us since we now do not need to buy him anything throughout the week, saves money. It also helps him to focus and try a little harder. We explained our process to the teacher and told her to threaten the yellow pencil :) We have also been taking him to school around 7:30 when his actual teacher is there. This allows him to sleep in another full hour and he gets to go to his classroom. He did not like going to the room that was 2 years ago since he is a big boy now. This seems to have worked, he is doing a lot better. Its all about trial and error on our parts to find the way that works best for our son. Whether it works for us is not debatable, its all about getting him started off on the right foot.
Here are a few new pics and we will post some more next week!
