Real learning

One afternoon in my classroom Bentley, after respectfully asking (like he always does), "Dad, can I draw on the board?" Bentley was doodling away and then asked me to, "Come and see what I did Dad!"  Extracting myself from my study at the back of the classroom, I went to see that Bentley had written his name!  This is actually the 3rd time I saw him do it on the board (on three successive days.)  In about 1 week of half days in pre-K, he had learned to write his name.  I am a VERY proud father!
