We haven't traveled much this month, just trying to finish up setting some stuff at the house plus the weather is not really that great for going places - hankering around 32F with constant rain. Anyway, below are some pictures from the weekend. Lusha is working on the sticker book that Suzanne got in Paris (putting uniforms on soldiers starting from ancient Rome to Napolean's army to both World Wars and US generals), then the whole family was learning about tessellations (lizard project). The last set of pictures is from the kids putting on a show in the basement. Ilya did a combo of rhythmic gymnastics with a dance routine that he came up with all by himself and Andrei did martial arts demonstration. Anton was driving his little car around :)
Wrote this last week but never published :( My plan was to write about Anton and his school a bit. Or about how German language acquisition is (after being in Germany for 4 years). However ... life! Last week Andrei was home Tuesday and Wednesday because the teachers held parent-teacher conferences for those 2 days and kids had no school. First time it's happening this way because in other schools meetings were always held either before or after classes. After having him home for 2 days and meeting his classroom teacher, I learned pretty much nothing new - his grades are good but he needs to talk more in class. That's what I got out of a 30 minute meeting. Friday Anton was home because his school starts Carnival celebrations early. Monday and Tuesday all the kids were home because again Carnival - Rose Monday and for no reason for Tuesday. Anton's extended celebrations continued into Wednesday. I am not a fan...
