Report cards

The kiddos got their report cards today, and I am pretty proud of their progress.  Zhenya had good grades in all subjects in his 4th grade and Leeza is getting an award on Friday for Most Improved for learning her ABC's!!!  Boy, we have been working like crazy on those ABC's.  Leeza also knew 14 out of the 26 letter sounds!!!  Her report card showed alot of improvement from the previous report card!  She loves loves the computer and learning things on it.  Now she is asking papa for an IPad......my gadget girl!  We have access to IPads at our schools and the kids are crazy about them.  I am trying to figure out a way to justify the purchase...an IPad for mama and I will share it with the kiddos?  It can be used as an educational tool afterall!   Anyway, I am so proud of how great both Zhenya and Leeza are doing in school.  Zhenya did his first science project today!  He said he did good and got a treat from him teacher!!  Parent-teacher conferences are tomorrow.  Jeff gets to go because I have my own conferences at my school/job.  I am pretty sure it should mostly be good reports.  They are both enjoying school and learning.  
Here are a couple photos of Zhenya and his science project on erosion.
