Sakura..New School

Sakura is now in year 4 and is settling well.  I am very proud of her because the move from japan was huge for her, losing her best friend and everything important to her. 

She has made a lot of new friends but not a best friend ..Yet...She does like to have that 1 special friend.  She spend quite a few days in tears as being the new kid is not something exciting for Sakura, but she did so well and has now settled okay.

They are reading the wonderful book "The miraculous journey of Edward Tulane" by Kate DiCamillo and she is loving it,  I bought her a copy for her to keep in school so she can keep up at her own pace . 

Also they are working with a poem book called "Hot like fire" by Valerie Bloom...such a great book

At home Sakura is building up her spelling and time tables....
She enjoys working with the Montessori multiplication and Division boards we have...
