Being a young mother at full time working is very stressfull but now Álvar and Martín are more independent, both are going to start the official school. We have enlloed in the public school we have in our village. In Álvar case, it is going to be the second year at school. We are very happy with the school although the main need we have is due to the fact that it is not a bilingual school and Álvar has not progressed much in that area in relation the knowledge he adquired at kindergarden.
At home we have read and sing everyday in english but we consider we need to do more to establish daily routines to learn english in a ludic and easy way. We have though to contract private classes, but they are very young and we don´t want to enroll them in many activities and pass much time going and coming downtown from different activities.
Finally Miguel and me are going to work with them using Cambridge and own ressources we have. They are getting used to learn reading and singing beacause we have many books at home and they have usually gone to storytelling and creativity sessions at Unpuntocurioso (a great place to learn and love reading...)
The main ressources we will use are...
