Parents' evening

We have just attended our first parents' evening at Marisca's nursery.  We were looking forward to it, as it's such a fun activity, but there really wasn't much to it.  Maybe they get more itneresting once Risky starts misbehaving more.

We talked about what Marisca likes to do (read, make tea and toast, sing songs) and what she doesn't (eat her main course at lunch).  We've noticed that she brings more and more ideas home from nursery and apparently it works the other way too; she makes 'toast' for her friends.

Mo (her key worker) told us the things that she does that hit the various parts of the early years foundation thing, as she seems to be going along just fine.  He did have an assessment with scores in various different boxes (hard facts!) but didn't share them with us.

So, what did I learn? Two things - one, that she does have a couple of children that she hangs around with more than the others so is being social (I don't see that much at home) and two, that the song she often wants us to sing that we never understand is something about a turtle.  If anyone knows it, let us know.
