The traveling school

Marianne was in grade when we left Montreal to begin our journey to Asia in October 2009. The curriculum and workbooks weighed down our backpacks, but were essential for our daughter to continue her academic learning with us, his parents, as teachers.

We were lucky: our big girl had learned to read in kindergarten and was a little ahead of his group in reading, her teacher told us at the time of departure (this said with a big advanced maternal pride). But it was still work the math, expand their vocabulary and not lose the habit of doing homework regularly.

Teacher Playing on the road is not easy. We do not have the same relationship of authority with our own child can be a teacher. We do not control either the teaching techniques. But above all, on a trip, our schedule is constantly changing and we have no routine in which to insert the period of school work. Marianne thus regularly spent several days without opening its books when we were traveling or hiking. On average, I estimate that she worked three or four hours per week. There were some difficult times during which he was raising his voice to convince her to concentrate on his duties. Why sit in some hard thinking when there is the beach side, or play with friends, or exploring the mountains? During the second half of the trip, fortunately, Marianne realized she would be spared and it was better not to focus on to finish homework faster, then go have fun.

To help us, we were fortunate to have the support of Prof. Marianne Claude Martel, the international program at Saint Bartholomew. He gave us the material before the start and we were in contact with him throughout the journey. Marianne has even talked to his friends in the class a few times with Skype. The low power of Internet connections, however, prevented us from "Skype" as often as we wanted. We have answered some questions from his friends in the class via email and have sent pictures a few times.

Had he had the class to make our two girls, it would have complicated things. Emily, age 4, she also wanted to do 'homework', seeing his big sister busy with serious things. As homework, she learned to write the letters and numbers and made little games in his workbooks.

Marianne returned to school for the last six days of classes in June. His teacher was able to verify that she had not fallen behind on other students. In fact, it appears to have rather taken the lead: unknowingly, we made him do exercises 2

year! There may be still some small adjustments to make next year for subjects on which we spent a little too quickly.

But even if she had taken a little late, I am convinced that the trip was for Marianne - and Emily! - An experience infinitely richer than a year in class (although having said that I believe in the importance of school ...). What they have learned will serve them throughout their lives. They have discovered other ways of living, other ways of thinking, other ways of eating, other ways to get around. They learned about the geography, history, politics, art, religion. They met people of all colors. And most importantly, I hope they realize how much they were favored above all poor and uneducated that we have crossed.

Not funny when the duties are following us on a journey ...

In Burma (Lake Inle)

Nepal (Pokhara)

In Vietnam (Paradise Resort)

Thailand (Ko Chang - even more difficult when the beach is within walking ...)

In Laos (Luang Prabang - homework overlooking the Mekong)
