Lesson Comments
Nico was very attentive and responsive during today's online Facetime session on the events of the American Civil War. As a side note I had the pleasure of speaking with his grandfather Joe N. who graciously expressed his appreciation of my S.S. coursework with Nico. Nico will be preparing for his last test tomorrow (online) which will be his last class for this school year.
