Jeremy

So Wednesday was a big day for Jeremy. It started with his math. He uses little cubes to visually help him do his addition. That was the first day that he did all his math problems with no cubes! He's become confident enough with the equations to trust himself and let go of the visuals. Great job Jeremy!
The second thing is that he learned how to swim! Granted, it's just a little ways, but this is huge! At the beginning of swimming lessons last week, he wouldn't even put his head under the water and now he's jumping in, swimming with form, and getting rings from the bottom of the pool. I can't tell you how happy this makes me! For the first time I actually have to watch him in the pool. He was so cautious and fearful before that there was no way he would let himself go under the water. Now, he's jumping in and trying to swim everywhere. Go Jeremy!
