Phrase of the day: Regla #1: No estan en escuela; este es su programas vacaciones; cuando si quieren aprender, la puerta siempre esta abierto, pero no hablan durante clase... Rule #1: You're not in school; this is your vacation program; when you do want to learn, the door is always open, but don't talk during class.
Goodbye half of the class!
Seriously, I think 90% of the boys went(go) outside to play soccer. I'm totally fine with that though. It's much better than them watching t.v. at home or getting into trouble. Plus, I'm still left with a little more than 30 students; the ones that actually want to learn.
Yes, insane. There are way too many kids in San Isidro... So Kasie and I are teaching in a Summer School program at the moment. She's teaching English and Health, I'm teaching English and Values/Habits(How to be a decent person), and teachers from the high school are teaching Math and Computer Literacy. The classes are free, and happen 3 days a week, for two months.
No worries folks, my handwriting hasn't gotten any better...
But in my defense, it's not easy writing letters all big like that... right. And yes, apparently Shereen has a zoo (but just imagine what I tell them you all have!).
I almost forgot, every Thursday we have a "sports class" with the kids. Last week I taught them Ultimate Frisbee. It was nuts, but at least no one got hit in the face! Pictures to come in the future. (Hopefully not of kids being hit in the face).
