Simi Update

Simi just completed his first quarter of school. Now he has three weeks of vacation. How cool is that?

Simi is absolutely loving school. He's doing incredibly well. He has math twice a day, which he loves. He also does a lot of reading, writing, and listening comprehension. Every day they have a different special: either gym, art, music, computer, or one other thing which I forget right now. He loves it all.

His reading is amazing. He's reading very fluidly right now. He's on level 16 of books, if that means anything to anyone. He is also working on his writing and doing first grade math. I'm so incredibly grateful that he's in the K/1 combination class and can do the math with the first graders. He is just absolutely loving it.

Simi also just started violin lessons. We just got Simi a little Suzuki violin - it's teeny tiny! Both boys continue to take swim lessons on Saturday mornings.

So now Simi is on vacation for three weeks. We enrolled him in one camp this week and a different one next week - just to see which (or both) he likes the best. There are lots of camp options, so we'll try a bunch and see which he likes the best. I've checked out these camps and they look like a lot of fun. In fact, I'd like to participate!

And that's our latest Simi update.
