Rose is now in second grade. She still loves to read and her favorite subject is still math. Rose wants to be a teacher when she grows up. After discussing how the first woman is scheduled to land on the moon by 2024, Rose is determined to be the first woman on Mars. In addition to school, Rose bridged from Daisies to Brownies late in the summer.
Jacob started kindergarden this August. He's still adjusting to being in school full-time five days a week but otherwise loves. He enjoys telling us about his day and the doings of his classmates. More recently, Jacob has been doing well learning to read, especially Elephant and Piggie books, and has been having us quiz him constantly on sight words - even ones he isn't required to know yet!
