Last week was SEP testing week at school. (And if someone knows what SEP stands for, I'd love to be enlightened.) Maxine was tested for her reading skills and reads well for her age. The 1st grade teacher at her school has a small class this year and invited the Kindergarteners who can read into her class for reading hour. This morning marks Maxine's first time going to the 1st grade reading hour and she was very excited. I was slightly worried about her being bored in Kindergarten but this should challenging. And she'll still be able to do all the fun things the Kindergarteners do. The best of both worlds. (This is Maxine getting off the bus on the first day of school but I never got a chance to post it before now.)
And can you believe it's September??? It was almost cold outside this morning. I went Christmas shopping over the weekend! Hee hee. I'm trying to get a head start. I couldn't believe all the Halloween stuff that was out already. I'm getting excited to wear a sweater again but that means that lake season is drawing to a close. *sigh*

SEP just basically means that you, your child, and the teacher make your Students Educational Plan for the current quarter. It is when you make your goals, and determine how those goals will be met. Jocelyn has currently met all of her class wide goals except for one, and that is to know how to tie her shoes! She just doesn't even have shoes with laces! So I told her that we would go shoe shopping this week, and find her some cute shoes with laces. Jocelyn tested up to a reading level 10. Not quite the 16 that Maxine tested at... but still good I think!
Boo for lake season closing (even though I never get to go, I'd like to...)
I'm excited for fall, halloween, christmas shopping, etc, too! In fact, I did a little holiday shopping myself this morning. :)
I was just thinking about posting how I was looking forward to SOUP season! And Fall/Winter veggies.
