Ha, that is just a small sampling of what he was up to... LOL! I'm laughing about it now but I did take away 2 of his transformers that he was playing with and told him that he had to earn them back tomorrow night by doing all of his homework when I tell him to. I am 99% sure that the rewards system is going to be it.... I'm going to have to take away all of his toys and reward him back with them one at a time until he "gets" the fact that he HAS to do his homework.
As for his teacher, he really likes her. It's me and my mom she has been rude to. I was told before school started that she is "ODD" by more than one teacher that has worked with her in the past. I introduced myself on the first day of school and she basically turned her back to me. That automatically put her on my bad side - the fact that she could not spare 2 minutes to talk to me.
In fact, I have been trying to transfer him to a different school since before he started Kindy last year and keep getting refused. They told me that I have to wait until the PI Scores come out in October to request a transfer. If they fall under PI then I will be able to transfer him to a non-PI school of my choice, provided there is room available. Unfortunately, there is only one school that I really want him to go to and the fact that they make you wait until a month and a half into the school year bugs me.
Unfortunately since I have to work full time with an hour commute, it is hard for me to be there every second to make sure he is learning what he's supposed to be and I would really like to be able to communicate with his teacher to ensure that I am asking all of the questions that I need to and that she's answering them. However, I just don't get that warm fuzzy feeling from her and it's discouraging.
