Reading

Caden's reading scores are really weird. He scores off the charts in some areas, and under average on others. I think that he is just lazy! He just wants to be a punk. If I give him a reason to read really well, like playing or getting ice cream, he can read like a wiz kid. So their class was having a reading month where they read to the class. Caden was the first student. I was REALLY nervous for him. The books that Chet and I wanted to choose from were NOT what he wanted to read. Finally he decided on Don't Tell Lies, Lucy. I called the teacher and asked if parents were supposed to come. She said that would be great if we came. The babies sat on my lap listening to every word. Caden did AMAZING! I was so proud of him. I just wish that he would read like that all the time. Chet told him that if he didn't get reading down, he might have to stay in 1st grade while all his friends went to 2nd. He was NOT having any part of that. My little social bug would DIE! He is WAAAAAAAAAY above level in math, and in some of his reading tests. What a silly boy!
