Kaden started out the school year in a new school, with a new teacher, and new classmates. Kaden is in the 4th grade Magnet classroom this year. The magnet class is for kids that are advanced in their age group. The class for fourth graders is held at another school across town from where his old school is. There are about 23 kids in the class. It is a whole different experience than Perrine was. The kids in this class are definitly not babied. Perrine sent home homework packets at the beginning of each week and they were due Friday/Monday. In his new class the kids are responsible for gathering their work to do, writing down their weekly agenda, and having the work done and turned in on time. So far this week just to name the bigger things they had a Science lab on physical and chemical matter change due, an 11-12 page story with graphics due, on top of a spelling test and packet, reading their book for class with packet, and a paper due on their thoughts surrounding Sept.11. If this sounds like complaining it's not, maybe just a little venting!! I feel like I'm back in school just helping him with his homework. Throw in piano, soccer, and scouts and he is one busy little guy! Keegan started another year at his fun little preschool. This year he goes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9:00-11:30. He is very excited to be back with his friends and teachers. We are slowly getting the hang of our new schedule but thinking that we need to move across town because we are over there a minimum of 4 times a day!!
