Tonight I taught middle school and 1-2 second grade again. So, on Tue/Thurs I teach 1-2 grade (6:30-8) and middle school (8:30-10). And Wed/Fri 2-3 grade and then adults after. The half hour break is much needed in between these classes. I am not called to be a teacher! But this is a wonderful experience. It is exhausting not having a language in common! But we make it through each class laughing and smiling.
My 1-2 graders were learning colors tonight so we played "I Spy" for a portion if the class. Then we were learning body parts so I taught them "Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes." I have also found that the LOVE word finds so I make sure to bring at least two for them to work on. I try to stick with the theme for each unit in the work book I am using, Tuesdays class is all about Farm animals! I am excited to teach them "Old McDonald"!
Krista and I are hoping that will be getting paid (like Josh and Justin did last summer) to help with the cost of the trip and hopefully end up with a little extra. We are unsure if this is the case this summer. In this culture it would be rude and impolite of us to ask about it. Another difference in cultures :)
