Default How do you decide?

This is the first year that I have had the option of putting my girls in a
different class, since their preschool has three 3 year-old classes. The
director called me to ask if I want them in the same class and I told her I do.
At the end of last school year I asked Jordan & Madison's teachers how they did
in the same class....did they play with other children or stick together, etc.?
The teachers said they did very well in the same class and that they were
surprised that one of them was not more dominant than the other. They said that
with all the other twins they have had one twin was always more dominant than
the other. They both have different interests (Madison's favorite thing at
school is art and Jordan's is music) and when I dropped them off last year they
almost always went into 2 different directions. Jordan has been clinging to me
a lot lately too and I think it will help her to know that Madison in the room
with her.

So I'm pretty confident I made the right decision, but then I started thinking
about other factors that should be considered when they get older. I am going
to make the decision on a year by year basis, but I would like to hear how
those of you with twins in school have made your decisions over the years.

TIA,
Andrea
