Foreign Perspectives

The Kumon tutor is off on holiday for the rest of July so we were given enough of the worksheets to keep us going for the rest of the month and it’s a frightening heap of paper – getting on for an inch and a half of worksheets for each of our little guys.

Actually, it could have been more but we’re running at half the normal number for the harder of the two subjects for each of them at the moment. In theory we’re aiming to move to full speed during August but we’ll see how July pans out. Since we’ve just moved to two subjects for each of them, we’ve not quite established the new working pattern for the worksheets and, of course, it’s the school holidays at the moment so it would be different anyway.

We’re hoping that the sheer mountain of work ahead won’t put them off. In the normal little weekly doses it doesn’t look nearly so great!
