After school I emailed one of my parents about her daughter, Social Butterfly. I just wanted to give her an update on her spelling and how she is doing.
This child has struggled a bit with the spelling and there are family problems occuring. Butterfly has her moments, but really tries hard. I emailed her mom letting her know that she got all 20 words right on her spelling test. I also let her know how much Butterfly has been honest about things lately.
Her mom replied saying this was the best news she had all week.
That reply totally made my week.
One of my other students, Hawaii (no not real name, that's where she's from though), has really worked hard this week. I moved their seats last week and she has been answering questions right and left and really impressed met his week. Hawaii's mom is a bit intimidating at times. I let her know yesterday how well she has been doing this week and then today how fantastic she did on spelling (she too has REALLY struggled with spelling)- she got a 102% today! Her mom was so excited and thanked me for letting her know how well she was doing.
I was surprised and just so proud of Hawaii!
Small surprsies. Those are the best!
