Why I Like School


I asked Andrew the other day what it is about school that he really likes. Do you like P.E. the best? What do you enjoy about music or reading time? He says that he likes to hang around his friends and they are all fun to be with. One of his best friends is Olivia. At home he refers to her as O-L-I-V-I-A. He literally spells her name out. They were in the same class last year, but were assigned to different classes this year.


Aza is his other good friend. He comes home some days and tells us, "Aza did this and Aza did that. She is soooooo cool!" At this age, he's having the time of his life and is not worried about global warming, the collapse of US housing market, inflation and all the other things that we adults think about. All Andrew is concerned about is whether he has to finish his Mandarin homework by the weekend so he can watch TV.
