Is this how I do this?

Due to my increased activity in random groups and stuff, just thought I'd make it public that this journal is friends only. If you want in on the witticisms and general gabbery, leave me a note.

Yip cha.

My grandson seems to be antsy this year. He tends to sing during quiet time (reading and working) and makes noises with his mouth. He does not realize he is doing this.

He goes to a traditional school and has done very well up to this point. This year his teacher may not be as patient. He seems to like her fine, but he is not getting smiley faces like he did so often in kindergarten and first grade. The teacher says he disrupts the class with his singing and noises.

I am trying not to defend my grandson, but I do believe he does not realize he is doing this. The teacher in fact said when she asked him to stop he looked up at her and was shocked he was doing anything wrong. He loves school and doesn't complain about getting up to go, but we are worried, with no smiley faces, there are no rewards and he is a very competitive child.

We have tried to tell him to hold his tongue between his teeth when he starts to make the noises. We also notice this noise at home sometimes, but we have gotten use to it. We want him to enjoy going to school and be happy learning.
