I love Theo's school. I really do. I love his teachers, the constructivist approach, and I simply adore his principal. In this one year Theo has learned to read, to write, to draw, to sing slightly pushy, propagandist (but very cute) songs about the environment and recycling, and all the parts of a leaf and a flower. Success.
Still, sometimes I am surprised at the other things he learns.
Like this:
"Mommy we are not supposed to share with our friends. Someone might have an allergy."
OR
"Mommy we cannot talk about our play dates or our sleepovers or our birthday parties, because someone's feelings might get hurt."
OR
(Screaming) "Mommy! Do not use that paper!!!!! That is a tree!!!!"
