First Grade at the French Lycee de Budapest is not very easy. Terence's homework assignment over the 1 1/2 week break (which they call ski break) was to learn to spell out in cursive / script / handwriting numbers 0 - 9; 20 - 69. Other numbers follow a different rule and that is why they are left out. He also needed to learn the months of the year, days of the week and spell all. There were about 20 words that he needed learn to spell upon hearing them (ie de, des, qui, que, le, les, etc). Lastly, he had to memorize this poem and recite it in front of the entire class. How scary! He said he screwed up a bit but think it was more a stage fright rather than forgetting. Here he is saying it perfectly. Or at least it sounds perfect to my ears.
