For once, school started here at a sane day, September second. I was well prepared for my new middle school after taking a tour the day before. All my old friends from elementary school were here, but most of them were on Omega, not Sigma. Omega, Sigma, and Delta are the three teams at Diamond, and they all have different teaching styles. My team, Sigma, teaches very precisely, with lots of routines and very clear explanations. Omega sometimes strays off the curriculum, and is quite random, with some freedom, and Delta is a mix but with a more nurturing environment. Most pupils fall squarely into one of those three categories, and the team system works very well.
So far, I haven't learned anything except the various routines of the teachers. Going two days with only routines starts to get slightly boring after a while. Maybe after the weekend I'll start to do some proper work. Who knows what the year has in store for me.
