I had a good chat with Nissa last night and she told me about Nate’s progress in school. Nate loves his online classes but Nissa is having a hard time working from home and at the same time supervising Nate in his schooling. “That’s is why I never dreamed of being a school teacher”, I told Nissa even if Dad persuaded mo to take up Education when I was in college.
They have this subject where they learned to make a simple book mostly drawings of the things they want to put on paper. Nate got so absorbed in it that he made several instead of just one to submit in school.
Nissa actually took a video on how it’s done, unfortunately I could not seem to follow it. I must admit I am not good in following instructions like that. You have to fold the paper so many times and cut it in the middle then fold it again so it would create pages. Here are the examples Nissa sent me on what Nate did this week.
Children could really be so creative. I wanted to see the other figures that he made especially the flowers and cars. Oh, they still wear uniform shirts even at home with their school logo. Nissa told me they have different colors of shirts every day.

He has done very well creating his small books. And he is starting to look very grown up now too.
Best wishes, Pete.

Haha, he is showing how smart he is. I don’t even know some of those characters. I am just familiar with King Kong.

I do hope so. Nissa is a voracious reader too, I am sure Nate would follow.
