AR = Advanced Reading

Back in November Colin's teacher shared with me that she felt Colin was ready to move into the AR group in class, however she didn't want to push to hard and have him loose momentum. He went back to school this week and day one she tested him for AR. You need an 85% to pass and Colin scored 100% the first day and then he tested again today and did the same thing 100%. We are so proud and most importantly so is he. He loves reading and doesn't shy away if the word is to challenging. He knows how to sound it out and break it down. I am so impressed. I think back to when I was in first grade and I'm astonished at what they are learning and how much he knows. He loves school and has so much confidence. I know I didn't at that age, so I am just beaming at how well he does.
Kudos for Colin!!
