Sammy’s class is a combined first and second grade class with 4 boys and 3 girls. He comes home for lunch every day except Fridays and it’s fun to see him in the middle of the day. The school is a 10 minute walk or 5 minute drive from our house. The curriculum is American and everything is in English except Spanish class. Sammy loves everything about school and in spite of being a bookworm, will tell you that his favorite thing is P.E. which all the students at the school do together.
Nathan is going to a preschool that was started last year by one of the missionaries. There are twelve 4-5 year-olds, several from the orphanage that is located in Shell. This school is also in English with a part of each day set aside for learning some Spanish words. He has enjoyed the first week and the only drawback we can see is that Josiah misses his older brothers and wants to go to school as well. Although Nathan likes doing crafts and activities, his favorite part of the day is recess time!
yeah for school! we’re so glad the big boys are loving school so much. what a blessing! hopefully josiah won’t suffer too much while they are away – eventually isaac will be old enough to enjoy playtime with him.
i tried several times to figure out which of your boys was which, and i gave up. i didn’t realize how similar they all looked!
i did well with sammy and josiah but nathan and isaac especially look alike. so sweet!
we love you guys and miss you lots! keep the updates coming – we love them!
