Cass came back from school yesterday with her school bag that looked as if it was about to burst out its contents at anytime. I helped her carry it and gawd, my shoulder was lop-sided and it hurt! I think her school bag weighed over 7kg, at least.
Cass told me that the principal informed all the students yesterday that they can no longer place their school books inside their desks in their respective classrooms. All the books have to be brought back… which means that Cass would have to learn how to pack her school bag.
After shower, Cass poured out all the contents from her school bag and asked me to teach her how to pack her school bag.
My method is pretty simple – books for each subject are placed inside a plastic folder. The folders are labelled according to the subjects with her name and class. Some parents whom I know label the books with different colors to signify either the subject or the day.
I will need to guide Cass for a few days and henceforth, leave her with this daily task on her own, with spot checks done randomly on her bag.
