Here Roo is doing work his teachers sent home. They give homework every week. However, it is suppose to be completely up to the child if they want to do it. The intent is to help instill the idea of doing work from school at home, AND create a positive encouraging attitude towards doing the work. If they want to do it (and some kids ask for more), that's great. If not, no big deal. Most often Roo falls in the "not" category. Lately he's been into numbers and maths and likes to comment "2+2+2+2 makes 8". So, practicing writing his numbers was attractive. (Note: Maths in not a typo. Apparently the British and Australians use the plural.) He has off school this week for spring break so once again, I'll assume my role of boredom buster. We are hosting visitors from the United States that are here to conduct workshops at Sun & Moon yoga. We're all looking forward to having the activity of company and it should be an interesting week.
