Two Classrooms

It's time for a peek into two different classrooms! The first one is Ian's preschool classroom. It is not really a classroom, but rather the dorm lounge of Tembo Dorm....one of the Elementary School Dorms. Our friends, who are the dormparents there, were gracious enough to host preschool there this year. Here is Ian, on his first day of school - very excited, as you can see! There are 8 kids in his class and the moms each take turns teaching. This month - September - I am teaching with Bethany. She is an expert!

Here is the whole gang - including Bethany and I. Can you tell who the class clown is? Yes, it was quite the morning...

After teaching preschool in the morning, I headed off to my other teaching job....

6th grade Social Studies! It was quite the contrast from herding 4 year olds around!

This week we are doing an archaeological dig for Social Studies. The kids were super excited about this. We were supposedly in the year 2452, digging up the remains of "an old school called Rift Valley Academy" to see what we could learn about that time era. It has been fun so far!

Tomorrow the kids will dig a bit deeper. They have to record everything they find. 

After Social Studies, I wrap up the day with the kids with silent reading time and signing their planners on the way out the door.

I will try to get a class picture one of these days, when they are not digging for treasures in the dirt!
