\tFinally… someone has told me what\u0092s really going on with Kaitlyn at school.<\/p>\n
\tThis week, Kaitlyn\u0092s been taking part in what\u0092s called a \u0093soutien scolaire.\u0094 It\u0092s basically tutoring in a specific topic for children having trouble with it. Before we left on vacation, Kaitlyn\u0092s teacher asked us for permission to enroll her in the soutien for children in her class who are having trouble following directions. I asked her if the real problem is Kaitlyn\u0092s comprehension of French. Oh, no, she assured me that Kaitlyn understands \u0093everything\u0094 and is \u0093very smart\u0094 but just doesn\u0092t follow the directions. So… we signed her up.<\/p>\n
\tTonight at the Boujolais Nouveau party, I had a chance to talk to a woman whose daughter is a friend of Kaitlyn\u0092s… and is also a teacher at the school. She hasn\u0092t been Kaitlyn\u0092s teacher… until the soutien. She told me that Kaitlyn really had no business being in the soutien because she could do the work quite easily… the only trouble being that sometimes she doesn\u0092t understand the instructions in French. Kaitlyn has been going to this school for two years now and FINALLY someone tells me that, no, she really doesn\u0092t understand all the French. She said the other problem is that she tends to chatter too much with her little friend, Sophia, and that if their teacher would separate them it would be better for both of them. <\/p>\n
\tNow… to tackle the ordeal of figuring out when to get French lessons for Kaitlyn… since the one private teacher she likes isn\u0092t available the one day a week she doesn\u0092t have school…. But at least I know what I need to do. Finally. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
