I received a call from Ve's kindergarten teacher this morning. She was just gushing as to how smart Ve is. After only 3 weeks, she is participating just like her fellow classmates. Apparently yesterday morning it was Ve's turn to do the "calendar". Not completely sure what it all entailed, but there were many steps. Ve was the leader of the class and walked through each step with the others following. According to her teacher, she was fantastic. I also received a call from her ESL teacher last night and she is working on encouraging the district to hire an interpreter for her and Mim to help them along with their classes while in school. It is not a done deal yet, but looks promising. Lastly, both the regular education teacher and the ESL teacher stated more than once how VERY SMART Ve is, and they are excited to see how she does once the language barrier has been overcome, because already with little English she is remarkable. What great news to hear. The best part Ve LOVES school. She is always happy, jumping and talking nonstop at the end of the day. It warms my heart for her to be doing so well.
