Today we had to go drop off his iPad and library books at the school...we stayed in the car and was a curbside sort of drop off. Eli's teacher came out to give him hos report card, workbook, and a bear. Said he's proud of how well he did and that he's now a first grader! His report card was perfect except in partcipating in class discussions...but that's Eli, he is very shy!

@tammys85 Thank you :) I hope so too! Oh I am sure he was...being a teacher for so many years he's probably had lots of shy kids! He taught other grades before too, not just Kindergarten.

@MommyOfEli2013 I bet Eli was proud of himself too. So did he name his bear?

@MommyOfEli2013 I bet you are so proud of him too. When he names the bear will you share the name with us?

I'm glad he had a good report card. That's awesome he'll be a first grader next year. I can see that smile peeking out behind the bear. It's a pretty awesome bear. It was good of his teacher to give it to him.

Poor kiddo, having to spend half of Kindergarten doing it virtually. My friend’s daughter was in the same situation.

Well luckily it was only for 2 months of the school year! But I think he liked not having to actually go to class! Sorry she was in the same situation....it's not fun but hope the next year is better.
