Remember back a few months ago when I outlined the differences between my kindergarten class from '76 and my daughter's current kindergarten class?
Ok. I'm not so vain that I expect you people to remember my previous drivel. So here's the link.
Well, there's one thing I left off the list. Back when I was in kindergarten, there was no real way to measure progress because we didn't really do anything. We were just there. I think the kindergarten teacher's main objective was to get us into first grade alive.
Not anymore.
Since the beginning of January, Zoey has been taking weekly spelling tests. While the words have been relatively simple and of the two-to-three letter variety (I think this is the first week they've had to spell a five-letter word), it's still a test and she's still just a kindergartener.
Am I the only one who finds this E-X-C-E-S-S-I-V-E?
Enjoy the preschool years, kids!
