I survived the 1st day of school!

In English class Alec was asked to stand at
the front of the class and answer questions
from his classmates.

How was your day Alec?

"I knew when I was in Math, English, French
and Gym but there were other classes I didn't
have a clue what was being taught."

We realized that at the end of Alec's day he had
been placed in the wrong class with a completely
different schedule. Rachel's response to this;
"typically French."

If you are interested in the French educational
system from the persepective of a British lecturer
in France you may want to read a review of
his book,
On achève bien les écoliers?
(They Shoot Schoolchildren, Don't They?)

    Okay, for you, my husband at home, I
    will go to the forbidden Fort and
    take photos.
