He survived!!

:-)

He came out smiling and full of beans. His teacher is really into Doctor Who so they gelled well, and the other kids in his class were ok. They did some work on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory which is right up his alley and he said it only took him an hour or so to stop feeling wobbly so that's good. Hopefully he'll have the same to report when he gets out today.

Issy worked well today again, I think a few wires are starting to join up in her brain because she is working well with her workbooks and they are aimed at 6-7 so she must be doing ok. She's still slow with her reading but I have been looking through a website with resources that lovely Immy pointed us towards and shall start implementing some of these strategies with her. She is improving but she has such little confidence in it and tends to sound out every word rather than attempt splitting it into separate syllables etc. She is much happier doing maths and science work! But we shall perservere...

anyhow must go and help Alex do a jigsaw as he is climbing on my head :-S
