Maks’ Report Card

Maks’ got his report card last week.  I hate getting Maks’ report card.  I am always worried that I am doing something wrong and the report card just points out how bad of a mom I am.

Maks’ teacher prefaced handing me the report card by saying that Maks has gone through a crazy change over the Christmas holidays.  He has matured and is focusing a lot more.  She is very pleased with how he is working on his workbooks and that his interests in books are greatly improving.  She wasn’t sure where all this was coming from, because he wasn’t learning this behavior from school (her words not mine) but she was pleased.

So that being said, the majority of the report card no longer applies (once again her words not mine).

Now I am not sure what to do.  The majority of Maks’ report card talked about his lack of focus and his immaturity.  But none of that applies anymore.

I go in for my parent/teacher conference tomorrow.  I am not really sure what to expect.  Usually I go in with the report card highlighted and armed with a list of questions on how to make improvements or clarifications that I need but this time I have none of that.  I am not sure what comments actually apply to Maks now.

And because of that I don’t know how to prepare for the parent teacher interview.
