When we move back to China, we will dive back into our home-schooling curriculum again - but for now, we are surrounded with so many new and diverse ways to learn on a daily basis. Its just wonderful to see the girls enjoy learning and laughing with other kids that speak their language.9.26.2008
off to class
Being in Colorado Asia was their eldest pupil. Each day there was about 10-12 kids, with 2 teachers. The girls were timid at first, but grew very attached to their teacher Miss Rachel, an amazing German girl with increidble creativity & energy. They learned new songs, listened intently & followed directions, made new friends, learned to cooperate, went to gymnastics class and even make pumpkin pie. I am glad they had this opportunity to see what "school" is like firsthand, to show respect for their teacher, play & grow alongside other children and also develop some independence/autonomy away from mom & dad. I am sure it helps grow their identity too. They really have loved going to “class.”
