Oliver's Kindergarten Screening...

Last Friday I took Oliver to his Kindergarten Screening appointment. Just before we left he had a couple concerns. First "will I have to get a shot?" (no) and second "can I ask as many questions as I want?" (why not). With his concerns addressed he was more than excited to go. I thought he might actually talk the testers ear off before they could even get started. Thankfully, he did perfect and followed all the directions- ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS.

She asked him to draw a few shapes, build a couple block towers, and draw a picture of a person. He said "okay, I'll draw the person and then write the name under it so you know who it is". That's one happy drawing of Oliver- Love it!

I don't have a picture of it but she asked him to draw his cross over again. He drew a cross "like what Jesus died on" instead of the picture of a plus sign she wanted him to draw. Except she did say "draw a cross" not "draw a plus". I remember her pointing out that his looked like a "t" and "can you draw it again with the cross more in the middle. And he did. Just thought it was interesting. 

Wore neat eye glasses to test his eyes. He can see very clearly.

Tested his hearing, passed.

Then she asked Oliver to "Hop on the scale", so he stepped on and started hopping. Careful what you tell him, he does do literal meaning. Eventually the scale recovered and we learned he is 41.5 pounds. He measured at 46 inches tall.

He passed everything just fine, not that I had any doubts. He's so ready to go back to school he doesn't really want to wait another month to start.
