teachers-parents day

yesterday i just attended nixon's teachers-parents day. it's when the parents go to their kid's school and learn from their teachers what their child's been up to during school days. anyway, i didn't bring nixon along anymore because he might feel restless and play around while i talk to his teachers. it's my first time to attend this, it's nixon's first half year in school and i'm both anxious and excited.

i talked to his english teacher first. he was very impressed with nixon, he asked him early on during his first days in school if he was from america because his slang and diction was different. and nixon told her yes he was from america! my gulay! heheheh.. i just explained to her that he usually watches nickelodeon and disney channel, thats where he gets his english 'twang' when he speaks.

she told me also that nixon learns very fast but sometimes tends to talk in class when she's explaining but the wonderful thing is, everytime she asks him for an answer, he gives the correct answer even if he's not listening. bwahahahaha! *kakaibang talent yan anak*. she also said that nixon is very organize as a leader on their table. when they have activities, he does his work well and doesn't get distracted with the other kids. he's good with numbers and colors also. and the very nice improvementof his was that he can read! before, he just memorize the stories...now he can actually read! her teacher told me that she has flashcards of sentences and he could actually read them perfectly.

then i had a chat with his chinese teacher, she told me that from a kid who doesn't have chinese learnings from the beginning, nixon was very good. he was a fast learner. his teacher would call nixon's classmates for recitation and he would whisper the answer if his classmate can't answer mwehehehe! she told me that maybe he could develop his mandarin more by taking special classes since he's not practising at home *i think i should take the classes with him as well hihihi*. and nixon was telling his teacher that he has a sister *he was actually pertaining to tita juvs and tita isa*.

awww you really make mami proud nixon =) sorry, i just can't help but brag about my son's achievements =)
