Parent - Teacher Conferences - Evan

Last fall I blogged about Alex's conferences with his teachers but never had a chance to tell you about Evan's. Time passed and I decided to wait until spring. Well, they were last night and Eric and I were both able to go. These ones were child led so Evan went as well. We got to talk with his teacher and also ask Evan a few questions about himself.

He is doing really well and to no surprise he has a "routine" that he follows when it is free time to play. He and his friend Adler go to the building block section first. Everyday...same thing. Then he breaks off and goes to paint. Once he is done there he usually makes his way over to the dry erase board or the art center.

There are two teachers in his room. Ms. Pam and Ms. Cindy. He works a lot with Ms. Pam since she is his small group teacher, and he adores her just as much as she adores him. She was telling us that everyday during the large group, there is always a leader. If for some reason the leader for that day is absent, Evan will switch their name out with his own so he can be leader! I can totally see him doing that!!

He is so smart in so many areas and is coming along so well. He gets along well with all of his friends and plays well with each of them. He has come a long way since school started in September.

He had a bunch of art work to show us that we were able to bring home. As we were talking with his teacher, he took it upon himself to get paper, masking tape, glue and a hole punch out. It was so cute watching him get these things and make his own little creation.

Here is our interview with Evan last night:

1. Who do you like to play with at school? Adler
2. What do you like to play with at school? Blocks, Cars, Paints
3. What is your favorite color? Blue
4. What is your favorite food? Chicken Nuggets, Fries and Sauce
5. What is your favorite song to sing? ABC'S and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
6. On gym day, what is your favorite thing to do in the gym? Scooters
7. How old are you? 3
8. What are your favorite books about? Curious George and Animals

The last question was for him to write his own name. Which he did.

We are so very proud of Evan and all he has done and how far he has come in just a year. We are looking forward to next year in preschool again. We are so thankful for the opportunity. He has grown so much and learned a lot. The social aspect of it is very important for him as well. Learning to get along with other children and make friendships.  It is hard to believe that he only has 11 days left for this year. It has gone by fast.
