Can you tell the girls are excited to go back to school? Friday is the start of the Spring 2010 school year. I will be teaching Morgan's "Seedlings" class again. There will be 10 children in that class this semester, and the "officials" of the school believe the student population will continue to rise every semester for the next few years. The reason is that more and more people are learning about our coop, and wanting to be a part of it. There were some families that had to get on the waiting list for the Fall 2010 semester because they missed the deadline to register.
It is hard to explain the energy and excitement of Friday school. If you ask Jaden and Morgan about it, you will see their eyes light up. The fun part is that we are all working together, and having fun at the same time. I missed my "seedlings" during winter break. Of course, I got to see 3 of them when they came to Morgan's birthday party.
Jaden can't choose a favorite part or a single reason why she likes Friday school. She loves seeing her friends, learning new things, and sharing the things she learns with the family. Her teachers and even parents that are not her teachers, treat her as a niece. It is one big family taking care of the whole family.
I like that Jaden is learning things that I am not teaching her. She is becoming more and more independent, and wanting to be with her peers.
I like that I get to see Morgan's interactions with the other children. She makes me so proud! She is so smart & mature beyond her years. Last semester, she was the only 2 year old in a class with seven 3 years olds, but you couldn't tell!
