Day 3..
Lessons went as usual....coming and going of children of all ages and abilities fleeting between which ever class they chose. The two front row's of class being the more consistent and eager pupils. Really hot and humid day today. Teaching was tiring and mentally exhausting but still a lot of fun. The children are so cute, welcoming and happy to be there, that whatever mood you may be in or no matter how hot and tired you are, the kids dispel that and take your attention to more fun things. Like the colour of my watch, hair or eyes. The names of the objects around us....a bike, a tree, a wall etc.. The simple words have to be repeated over and over so that they will remember for the next day and beyond. Today was funny though as it was getting on for 7pm and class was delayed due to lighting issues again. Once that was finally sorted, I turned my back for an instance to write on the board.....next thing the middle row of about eigght children screamed as their bench and table collapsed and they all hit the deck! Oh..I laughed. I knew that row was over crowed but some days its empty and some days its standing room only. So that class was conducted while Sol and Sambeth hammered it back together.....as you can imagine, chaos..!
