Were has this year gone?! Our first school year in Copenhagen has flown by. The kids loved their new school immediately, and we were blessed with some fantastic teachers and new friends. The kids really enjoyed the inquiry based IB format at CIS. It allows for a lot of flexibility and really played to the kid’s strengths. 
The kids have grown up so much this past year. There have been challenges, but the highs have definitely outweighed the lows. There have been big changes, and everyone has most definitely rose to the occasion. The twins have grown physically and as little humans so much. I’m proud of them. Depending on the day, Andrew wants to be an artist, work with animals in the WWF, be an architect, or code cool programs on the computer. It’s always changing. Katherine is undecided.
Sports day at CIS. They randomly assign the students to different countries, and you participate with your fellow countrymen. Katherine was Team USA and Andrew was on the Russian squad…
Kids enjoyed learning the recorder this year. With each song they mastered, they got a different color string to tie on the bottom of the recorder. Lucky for me and Andy, most of the practicing was done at school.
The kids did a lot of after-school activities this year. Andrew played basketball and did Kid City (where you design and make a city.) They both participated in Roots and Shoots (environmental club.) K did gymnastics and baking classes. Katherine also really enjoyed doing hip-hop classes this year. She loves music and loves to dance and sing, so it was a great fit. 
Last day of grade 2. It was a great year.
