Dani had a WONDERFUL first day despite her injury. We had crossed fingers for Elle's day as she is slower to accept new situations. When I picked up the girls Elle's first words to me were, "I hate my teacher and I hate this school!" Heavy sigh... we had so hoped for the best. We came home and had long talks throughout the evening. Elle agreed to give it a week and see how things go.
Back to Dani's day. Her first day of middle school... very exciting! DAA does block scheduling which is a little confusing to follow but Dani seems to understand it. She has English, French, Arabic, Math, Social Studies, Science, Choir, Art, Decisions, PE and I am sure I am forgetting something else. There are 4 periods to the day and she has each class once within a 2-day period. She made several new friends already which is great.
