Reason to leave the current school:
1. Two much outdoor activities daily which cause less time to do acadamy : morning 7:45 -8:15am (hard for us to dress him), 12 - 1pm, and 3:30 - 5pm (too much sun explosure this time frame). unless -18'C is in gym (too cold, prefer more organized activities). --- Compare to others only have 20 min outdoor @10am and then after 4pm,
2. Mixed ages, only morning 2 to 2.5 hours kids pick what they like to work. (other school with another 1-2 hour montessori time in pm after nap.)--- traditional montessori style. Good for mixed age or seperate age group? --- too much flexibility, e.g. he likes play water then just play water everyday, how to balance on everything else like math or language? -- May be he needs to be a little bit push as he is tipical boy?
3. He was sick all the time in past year, a lot more than in previous daycare.
4. I sign one accident report in average once for every two weeks.
5. It is in middle way of my work and home. May be move closer to home is better.
6. In church, wash room in hallway, weekend are used by church.
Reason to stay:
1. Everyone loves him, especially his class teacher. She feels so bad if my son is going to leave, she find a lot of potential with him and he is doing so well in her class.
2. My son loves the morning teacher as well. Everymorning, he is happy to hug me and see me go.
3. He makes his best friend there. He likes another girl. (2.5 yr old, believe or not but it's true.He talks the girl's name all the time, and teachers told me a lot of stories about them.).更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
