One of the changes we have had to adapt to is that our oldest has homework every day. On average he will have four different tasks to do: reading a text, practising handwriting style, learning vocabulary and spelling, maths. At first it felt like the whole day was taken up with school work and I was worried that he would start to complain - but he has developed a great attitude towards it and is rising to the challenge. As he has grown in confidence, he has started enjoying the tasks more. It's amazing to see how fast children can learn information and new skills as well as adapt to new circumstances. It is very obvious that new words are slipping into his every day vocabulary. Today he was saying "bloß" - meaning just, only, but, merely. It took me a while to understand what he was saying because I'd never heard him use the word before :D
