Second semester progress report - 6/1978

Back in the days of handwritten report cards you got so much more information than a simple grade. My first grade teacher Mrs. Bronson included some of these jems...that will no doubt haunt me for quite some time to come:

• Chris is making very excellent progress in all areas of reading. He is wonderful to work with. I've discussed his continual talking, and he is trying to improve.
• Very verbal in participation
• Very creative and expressive drawings.
• Chris is coming along excellently in all areas of 1st grade. Academics seem easy for him. He does still need daily reminders to be less social and concentrate on his seatwork. I enjoy Chris very much.

Stop laughing. Yes, yes...it's amusing how little things can change in 30 years. *sigh*
