Zane . . . oh my goodness . . . he's having a wonderful year. He's even walked with his sister alone to school. He's a bit of a worrier but shows incredible strength. The little girls are fighting over him at school. He tumbles and chases with the boys at school. He's writing and reading and doing exceptionally well in math. He's enthusiastic.
He's written Mrs. Stolly notes to tell her that he loves her. Mrs. Stolly says he is amazing in class. He's sure to include others and help those who are struggling. He gives up seats and materials so others will have. He knows appropriate times to talk and is an active participant in classroom activities. So far he's gotten all green faces in class. Surely watching others pull their behavior cards has been enough to encourage him to stay on task and be cooperative.
The principal, volunteers, and other teachers know they can joke and play around with Zane. He loves it there and is also flourishing, eager to participate in all activities and still compete with his older sister and her buddies. He has a 5th grade buddy/mentor named Mikey. They work well together.
