And birthdate ... it was mostly the 1's and 7's that got messed up. I knew about the date/month ordering but I just wasn't writing my numbers "properly" !!Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04944020026020948429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208374754600710615.post-28413599935765130272015-06-16T21:04:19.327+02:002015-06-16T21:04:19.327+02:00Having gone to American schools and comparing note...Having gone to American schools and comparing notes with my French husband, and after having lived here 15 years, it is very different than American schools. Not commenting on whether that's good, or bad, just different. Although, when you see the curriculum of French schools, I daresay, I think they're learning more in French schools than in American schools. Your little one will be chirping away in French soon, interpreting for you, kids learn so fast. I wondered about your birthdate comment—did you remember to put the day, then month, then year order? That's always strange for Americans to get used to.Paperessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662870079396330252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208374754600710615.post-3924490179293130822015-06-15T21:56:33.549+02:002015-06-15T21:56:33.549+02:00I wondered if someone would notice that!!

Very simple (numbers, parts of the body, points of direction, etc.) but so cool that it is normal at such a young age. Wish we did this in the States! Incidentally, guess who thinks English class is the best part of the week??Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04944020026020948429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208374754600710615.post-2807801949953293232015-06-15T21:43:19.757+02:002015-06-15T21:43:19.757+02:00This is SUCH a great post- I love the daily glimps...This is SUCH a great post- I love the daily glimpses.

I'm about 90% sure. It's confusing. (Maternelle comes before and is preschool-kinder.) I think there are 22 kids in her class and 3 different classes for her grade. She's on the same campus as the other kids, as they go to a preK-highschool Catholic school.<br /><br />I really should do another post on school. There is so much and I know I'll forget it all some day! <br /><br />And, thank you for the prayers, Jill!

No secretary? wow. just wow. Thinking of you always. Praying for your residual headache-y things.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12662997340586020638noreply@blogger.com
