Speaking to my granddaughter on the phone (we usually have the children after school 2 days a week and I'm missing them terribly). She was so excited about what she had achieved in the day with her new learning regime. According to my son, she organised it herself and has even done her own timetable! She has learned the French for days of the week, numbers up to one hundred, and common greetings, plus the periodic table, and has started a project on a subject she chose - Egypt. Though she gets good reports from school, I've never seen her so enthusiastic about learning. I am so impressed and hope the novelty of setting her own agenda doesn't wear off! (Her younger brother is less self-motivated and has done the bare minimum today but hopefully he'll eventually get in the swing of things.)
