The official results for my Praxis II exam FINALLY got posted! Guess what? I ROCKED it! Those high scores that appeared on the screen weeks ago really were accurate. (not really a surprise) Those high scores that shocked me, 194 and 196, were out of a possible 100-200 range. Sooo much better than I was expecting going into the exam! I feel so relived to get the final scores posted and know there were no mistakes. Turns out my studying worked. :) Or maybe I’m just smart!

Speaking of smart, Lex used the word “idiom” in conversation today. Apparently they are learning about them in school. I don’t think I’ve ever dropped the word “idiom” into casual conversation. Also, he finally got a spelling list for this year and spelled every one of the 20 words correctly the first time I asked him. I started quizzing him on the 5th grade list, but he lost interest and went back to his reading, which totally fuels the spelling and vocab abilities!

(This post sounds pretty smart, doesn’t it, with all the caps and exclamation points!)
