Mateo and Ms. MaryToday was Mateo's first day of preschool - year two at St. Andrews. He was so excited about going to school again and said this morning, "I thought today would never come! Finally school is here!"
Entering his classroom, he didn't miss a beat. "Hi Ms. Mary! Hi Mandy! Hi Kyle! Hi Cecilia!" and then he looked around for something to do. His first choice, go to the reading corner with Mandy and a new little girl who he later told us was "Mandy's twin but with a different mom."
I am so proud of Mateo and his social skills and his love of reading and of school. He is able to write his own name and to read and write several words on his own (mom, hot, dog, box ...) He's this teacher's dream! :)
