Tonight was Curriculum Night at GDS. We got to meet N's teachers – Kate (History), Zoe (English), Carly (Science), Johanne (Spanish), Cristina (Math) and Hilary (Advisory). They all seem devoted, enthusiastic, nurturing and smart. N doesn't have much homework but it's good to see what he's doing when he's in class. Like his sisters used to do, he pumped us for information as soon as we got home, wanting to know what we thought of all of the teachers.

N has to bring some objects in to History tomorrow that represent power in his life (or lack thereof). 

He is bringing:

a dog leash (power over animals); chess piece (when you win you feel powerful); baseball (when you're pitching, you have all the power); our canceled ticket to Lisbon (we were powerless when our flight was canceled).

It's so great to be able to picture his classes and days at GDS!
