Hello Beluga Family

Teacher Jason here, reporting on how the week went for our baby belugas. This week Teacher Angel had to leave school for three days, and so I was lucky enough to take over in her place!

In Phonics this week:We covered the U sound (umbrella, up, upside down)

With concepts: We did opposites (up and down, in and out, and so forth) and talked about tons of different hobbies (making rockets, playing with puppets, baking cookies, and exercise).

The class as a whole was fantastic! They completed all their weeks coursework with ease and were well behaved.

Individual comments:

Mia was a perfect student this week, always followed instruction and always insisted that I sit next to her when we ate lunch.

Chloe loved our morning exercises, she especially liked the imaginary apple picking! She may have the making of being a superstar considering the fact that she is nearly always singing or dancing around!

Ivy was the best behaved this week, I never had to tell her to do something twice! I love her attitude.

Tanya started off a bit rocky for me, but her behavior improved as the week ended. She also insisted that I call her "Tanya-yayayaya" and she became ecstatic the moment I gave in.

Madi did fine up until some of the opposites lessons. During this time, she became a bit emotional because she wasn't getting the answers correct right away. I let her try a few times, and she ended up becoming a bit flustered, but in the end got the right answer and was back to her happy self!

Dora was a bit naughty this week. I had to discipline her for biting and pushing other students on the first day. Today however she was much better behaved, infact she sometimes said "Shhh teacher is talking" when other students were talking out of turn.

Henry was "Mr. Man" this week, due to the fact that he was always assisting some of the shorter or younger girls in the class. He made sure that he picked up Sherri's chair before his and always made sure the other girls had snacks before he started to eat.

At first, I was worried about Alex since I know that Tree House Academy is still new to him. However, those qualms were quickly washed away with his really happy attitude. Don't let his crying in the morning fool you, once he walks into the classroom as if it was his to teach!

Sherri has an exceptionally quick memory, she picked up all the hobbies and won the memory game that corresponded with that lesson!

Hope everyone has a great weekend,

Teacher Jason.
