We’re at the end of the third week of school, and I’m just NOW getting around to posting anything about the new school year. Here’s the brief recap:
Madeleine: The school decided to “loop” Madeleine’s class from last year. That means Madeleine has the same teacher, meets in the same classroom, and attends class with many of the same kids from last year. The district split the school during the summer. Instead of 31 kids in her class, she now has 26. Madeleine was excited that one of the boys from last is now in another school. “He could run faster than I could,” she confided.
Madeleine has done a good job getting off to school each day. She has been a really good big sister to Elodie, especially riding the bus together in the mornings. However, Madeleine already told me, “I spend my whole life sitting in a chair!” She also said, “I don’t get enough time to play. I like summer better.” Madeleine also feels envious of her two younger sisters who don’t go to full days of school and get to “do things” at home.
Elodie: Elodie attends a.m. kindergarten. It has been difficult getting details out of Elodie this year. All I know is that she likes to take the bus in the morning and seems happy (but starving) when she comes home just after 11:00. I’m hoping she will share more details as the year progresses.
