Our super new English and Music teacher, Miss McAvoy, joined us at the start of the year from England.
Freya wanted to ask her a few questions about the difference between English schools and IMS.
Freya:
What are the differences between this school and your old school?
Miss McAvoy:
My school was not Montessori, and it was an English-speaking school only. In my class there were thirty children and we did learning like you, but none of the fun Montessori stuff.
Freya:
How did you find the teachers in your school – and if you were a kid, the teachers of this school?
Miss McAvoy:
I was in a big school in England and I had a lot of teachers with me. In this school there are a lot less, but both schools are very lovely and everyone is very good at their job.
Freya:
So both schools are very nice.
Miss McAvoy:
Yes, both very good.
Freya:
How were the kids of your class compared to the kids of these classes?
Miss McAvoy:
Well the kids of my class were only 7 years old so they were very small and there were 30 of them. So there were a lot of them and they were loud. You guys are older and you speak both languages amazingly and you are very calm and sensible.
Freya:
Maybe some times we are a little loud though.
Miss McAvoy:
Maybe a little loud, but it’s okay.
Freya:
How was the food in your school and this school?
Miss McAvoy:
My last school did not give us food, we had to bring our own, so it’s nice that we get food in this school. I like some of it and some not.
