Last Day of TK...a look back...

I can't believe it's over. This year has flown by. TK was been more than I had ever hoped for Aston. He really has flourished. It will be so nice for him to walk into kindergarten in August knowing the ropes, being able to hug his old teachers and help newcomers find their way. He (and I:)) have made so many new friends and have kept the olds ones just the same. His TK class was such a cute mix of kids. I love this crew. I wish they could stay together for years to come. Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Hansbrough were outstanding. I could not have asked for more in control and nurturing ladies to lead Aston through his TK year.

Here's a video of the year for Aston and his classmates (some of Jack Hall and Kate W. too by close association!) to look back on and remember their launching point here at Charlotte Latin...we watched in class on Monday and there were many Mom/teacher tears:(

So proud of this...had to throw it in...Mrs. Williams showed us at conferences in May.

The kids were asked in April to write as many numbers as they could...he filled to 100...he told Mrs. Williams it was because he saw the number pattern...she was amazed that all his numbers were facing the right way and I was just amazed:)  Good job bud! Another nice thing she told us in conferences was that Aston is a leader...not the verbal kind but the by example kind...if he sits on the carpet when asked...others follow...and he is very much liked by everyone big and small, boy and girl...loved hearing this.

Kate,

Many thanks for putting this marvelous video together. I'm sure all the parents and grandparents will enjoy this celebration of their children's first year at Latin. Kudos to Mrs. Williams and Hansbrough for their dedication and skill.

Love, Badz
