Overall, Valerie is observed to be a very quiet girl. Very different from what we expected because she is always so noisy and loud at home ever since she started school. And her best friend... I asked if it's a girl by the name of Caryn, cause Valerie always say her friend's name is Caryn. Suprisingly, teacher said no. Her best friend is actually a small boy, about the same size and height with her. Okieeee....
Then comment from the teacher is Valerie is still speaking in baby language and has baby sound. She's not sure if kids at her age is still supposed to have baby sound. Her pronunciation is not very clear, so we need to practice speaking to her in proper sentences.. No more treating her like a baby and talking to her like a baby. I have to remind myself, she is a kid now... not a baby anymore. And we can also practice reading together with her, instead of just mommy or daddy reading to her.
Other than that, we've also talked about her eating and drinking in class. Because, she seems to be the smallest in class. Sighh... Valerie is such a picky eater. Teacher said she usually takes two bites and then put back her food in the container, packed into the bag and then play around. Doesn't really eat much. And drinks, teacher has been enforcing her to drink at least half a bottle.
I then remembered a bunny cake Valerie insisted to buy few days ago. At the mention of 'bunny cake', the teacher suddenly said 'Oh.. that bunny cake... You know what, she just opened the container and showed all her friends her bunny cake... Then take the ears and lick it until recess time is almost over'... Aiyooo... so she didn't eat the cake at all in class...
At the end of the session, we're given a pack of arts and crafts that Valerie has been working on the entire semester. I'm quite impressed with the work as they looked very interesting. So we need to focus on her pronunciation next...
