Back to school, times two

Miss Kat is back to school and loving it! She has bumped up a level, so to speak. At her school, the students are grouped by ability, rather than by grade. Last year, as well as the first semester she was here, Miss Kat was grouped with kids a little bit younger than her. This year, she is with students OLDER than her! She has really made a lot of progress, especially in reading. They were reading the Captain Underpants LAST YEAR! This year they are reading Little House on the Prairie. This is a really big jump, but I think she is weathering it well and she will rise to the occasion. Our IEP is next week, and we will get the results of her latest testing and write up our goals (which I will share here, of course).

The next piece of news is that I have also returned to school! 
 I am in school full time again, and guess what I am going to be? That's right, a teacher of the deaf!! (Hubby thinks I should put in the extra two years and do audiology, which is a passion of mine, but I have always been a teacher, so the classroom holds a special place in my heart, so we'll see!)
