I'm Not Complaining...

about my son's latest report card.  2 years ago, he was a year behind in most of his subject areas. This year he is almost caught up or at grade level in nearly all of them.  His Science - the grading on a scale of 1 - 4 (4 being the best), was ALL 4s.  Awesome! Fantastic!  Math, was holding steady.  Social Studies/History - a bit shaky, but we figure that is because he is more likely to do well if the topic interests him.  So...what did he take a step back in?  Focusing, step by step directions and Paying attention.  Next teacher's meeting, I'm going to point out - and I hope they agree...that given his grades in his various subjects,  I think he's getting it.
