We're being tested!


It's started and in our opinion way too soon. Iman has been getting spelling homework for the last few weeks and this week they will have a TEST! Iman is 5 years old and in Year 1. In most European countries kids her age haven't even started school. As a parent who wants he best for her child, I was a bit unsure how to approach the issue. The Asian in me wanted to sit her down and make her rote learn until she can spell the words backwards! But hey it's me and you all know I'm more chilled out than that so we are taking the carefree approach - though I did write then words out on cards for us to look at together. Wish us luck!
