Teacher conference

I met with Caleb's teacher this afternoon, for our 3rd quarter conference. She says he's doing GREAT! His reading was at the required level (24) after the first quarter and is well above the required level now (38). His class took a practice test for the state language arts score (required in 4th grade) and he got 86 (which she thought was excellent for a completely new test type). She said he continues to excel in math and is one of just a few kids in the class who immediately understands each new math concept. She gave the class a little fractions quiz on thirds (she said they're mostly fine with halves and quarters, but have trouble with thirds) - Caleb got it right away. His only issues - he tends to rush, and he talks to his friend Jonah too much during class. :o (Except for the talking) I was thrilled with his progress.
