Every parent thinks/wants their kid to be genius.  We are so biased!  Well, ever since I visited Katie Montessori classroom, I always felt the work they were doing was too easy for her.  Basic puzzles, sorting colors and shapes, etc.  So at our last parent/teacher conference, I asked the teacher if Katie could be moved up the the primary class where they do more in depth work.  She informed me that they didn’t have room plus they usually don’t move kids up until they turn the age of 3.

Katie doesn’t turn 3 until April so that means this school year would be almost over anyways.  Oh well…we’d have to wait until next school year.  Then yesterday we had a surprise!  The teacher came up to me and told me that she thought Katie was ready to move up to the Primary class and they wanted to do it immediately.  Not sure what the big rush is (they probably just needed Katie’s spot in the toddler class) but we aren’t complaining.  Katie will get to learn more and will interact with the older kids.

The only change is that the Primary class is 5 days a week (currently she only goes 3 days).  I think she’ll transition fine but she won’t get Mondays with my parents anymore and Pish will be golfing a lot on fridays now.  Don’t worry mom/dad! We’ll still be coming over for dinners like we did last night.
