Every now and then, Nada’s
school would return the ‘works’ which were done by the kids to each parent. The
works could be handicrafts, art-works, drawings, worksheets and stuff. I didn’t
realize how much Nada had brought home since she started ‘schooling’ in 2011
until one day I decided to organise the works.
Overwhelming!
I spread out the stuffs to
categorize them and I got stuck! I didn’t know where to start. Dang… no plans –
shoot me.
Should I categorize according
to the classes that she was in? The Baby Buttercup class, then in 3 year old
Daffodil class and 4 year old Hibiscus class. Somehow I can’t do that because I
had dumped all the works in few boxes before, they all got mixed up and I just
don’t remember how to sort out according to classes timelines. Crossed the
idea.
So, I settled for
categorizing the works in which I think would be easy and appropriately stored
by my standard. (not any ISO!) The A4 size worksheets and drawings would go
into files, drawings of drawing board sizes into ‘handmade’ folders. (Thank You
Daddy). Artworks and crafts into A3 size boxes of the same kind.
After couple of hours, I
finally managed to have my living hall floor cleared. Fuhh !!!!
Nicely categorized and kept. There are
also artworks that I’d like to hang up on our walls soon once we move to our
new-old pad. Yeah, I am proud of my daughter’s silly artwork like that.
I was happy with my progress
in organizing Nada’s school work. I thought I was done for the day……. NOT until
I found this box full of the same stuff, all still jumble up. Drawings, art-work.. misc.
O dear.. I was not at all done – Shoot me again. How does other people handle more than one kid ?
