We reviewed days of week, numbers and colors again this week specially for Jerry. Jerry understood them very quickly. He's a fast learner.

Jenny has been a good girl lately. She isn't picky about food anymore. She listens to teachers and is well-behaved at school. She likes to help others, especially our new student Jerry. She is teaching Jerry folding his jacket in the picture. I'm very proud of Jenny!! 

Cherry has also improved a lot at meal time. She used to be very picky about food, but not anymore. She is very kind to others too. She loves to share things with her classmates. And when she makes things at school, she wants to share them with her sister at home. I'm very happy for her! ^_^
