The kids had their first day of school today. It went pretty well for all of them. We were a little worried about how Micah would adjust to full days - but he did just fine. They all seem to like their teachers - and Micah and Matea - sorry Matéa - are in the same class.
Their class is a GS/CE1 split. You see - of course - we have one in GS - which is Grande Section - one in CE1 which is "something something 1" and one in CM1 which is 'something-I-think-maternelle 1. Class Maternelle 1 maybe?
So yes - we are obviously very involved parents who are right on top of our children's education.
When I was putting the protective plastic wrapping on the work books this evening (don't ask) I did flip through a reading book and notice that Louis XIV and a crème caramel recipe were in it. So that should be good.
It does seem strange that we are already doing this for a second time.
So glad they had a good day!
ReplyDeleteI do have to ask about the plastic wrap - as Drake came home and said to put some plastic on his books???
Oh and don't feel bad- I was picking the kids up for lunch and couldn't tell the Irish man my kids teachers names.... REALLY INVOLVED PARENT thats when I wanted to pretend I didn't understand "Irish"!haha here is to day 2, 3 and 4 going better then the last!
you want to "pretend" to not understand Irish. good one.
ReplyDeleteyes - the plastic wrapping of the books is a ritual of which I lack a full appreciation.
