http://www.reschoolyourself.com/update-secondgrade A grown-up returns to kindergarten in pursuit of learning and happiness Wed, 07 Jan 2009 16:38:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 http://www.reschoolyourself.com/update-secondgrade#comment-345 Melia Fri, 05 Sep 2008 16:07:53 +0000 http://www.reschoolyourself.com/?p=421#comment-345 Thank you! The older the kids are, the more they seem to wonder why I'm sitting with them in little chairs or on carpet squares. They still ask me to help them with their math sets or spelling, as they would a classroom aide. At recess they follow me around and talk-talk-talk, as much as I'll listen. I apparently wowed the 2nd graders with my dragon-drawing skills yesterday -- I'm supposed to make them copies. I'll post the cartoon masterpiece. :) Thank you!

How is the interaction between you and the other students? I'd love to revisit the 8-year-old mentality; i'd imagine it would be very refreshing. :) Melia, this really sounds amazing.
