Days of the week

The school year is almost over but my little first grader still gets confused about which day of the week it is - part of the reason is the French system with four and a half school days (half being the Saturday morning) with Wednesday as a day off school. The Saturday morning was added this year (consequently, other four days now have shorter afternoon classes).

To help my daughter tell days of the week correctly I made her this little banner with paper flags (7 cm high), sewn together with a piece of lace trim (I use old, worn out sewing needles for sewing on paper). Every morning when she gets down to breakfast, she will move the little bird pin one day forward. 

Happy Monday, everybody!

Šolsko leto gre h koncu, moja prvošolka pa še vedno ne ve točno, kateri dan v tednu je - zmedena je, ker ima francoski sistem štiri šolske dneve in pol (polovička je v soboto dopoldan), v sredo pa ni pouka. Da bi ji pomagala, sem hčerki izdelala koledarček iz papirnatih zastavic (visokih 7 cm), skupaj sešitih s čipkastim trakom (za šivanje papirja uporabljam stare, rabljene šivalne igle). Zdaj vsako jutro pri zajtrku premakne ptička / ščipalko za en dan naprej.

Lep ponedeljek vam želim!
