Quick Update on Coop

Today he met with the school counselor and was able to talk with her. At first he thought he was in trouble but she explained she just was checking in to see how  second grade is going. I think we are off to a start in figuring this out! I am meeting with her and the teacher on Friday to come up with some plans. It sounds like this problem is stemming from school and how different second grade is from what he is used to. We can solve this and bring his confidence level back up which will improve his self esteem. Yesterday he had a melt down in the morning and then was down about it. The thing that brings him joy and makes him laugh and smile is hockey -so last night at practice that was great to see! 

Today he has had a good day and was proud that he did his math all by himself! 

So I praised him for that! 

I am very hopeful we will get him back on the right track.
