To say that we are thrilled with Fletcher's new school would be an understatement! He is very content and things are going very smoothly for us all.
Examples of what makes the Children's Schoolhouse so cool and the right place for Fletcher this year:
There are 4 students in his class. How's that for a ratio?!
The teacher is amazing!
So far the boys (all 4 are boys) have made homemade play dough in the kitchen (measuring, stirring, cooking, kneading, etc.), constructed a wall from wood, sand, and water (real construction), made a trench and constructed a bridge over the trench (engineering!), and planted a vegetable garden.
The learning is very cooperative and already the boys have formed a special bond.
It's all hands-on, practical learning based on the students interests! It is exactly the right thing for Fletcher for this year!
We are blessed to have found this school!

What a wonderful learning environment! The Schoolhouse does sound like a perfect fit for Fletcher!
Sounds great! Fletcher & Grampa will have to exchange ideas on bridge design.
