Progress at Kinder

Had a chat with Beth's teacher last week and was relieved to learn that:

a. She feels Beth is ready for Prep
b. She has no issues with Beth's academic/intellectual progress
c. She would like to work with Beth on her sociability factor.

In all, I didn't learn anything I didn't already know, just a validation of what I've already observed.

I'm reminded of Howard Gardner's work on Multiple Intelligences, and having experienced the stress of winging it on the strength of just my academic intelligence, I know I want Beth to develop her other intelligences so she grows to be a well-rounded, well-adjusted individual.
