It is hot here. I’ve been trying to convince myself that it isn’t to bad, but it is hot and humid. I think I’m chronicle dehydrated. I can’t drink enough water to stay hydrated. I sweat it all out on my walk from my flat to the Kindy.
I finally got a curriculum that is more than a few flashcards! It is very strangely organized we go over on letter a week in N1 and a few letters a week in L2. We also talk about on colour (and yes I spelled it right) and one shape each week for N1 and a few colours and a few shapes for L2. If I were in charge we would do a unit on colors and a unit on numbers. They are suppose to know the alphabet, so that is just review and fine to do one a week. We also sing old nursery rhymes. The first week is Two Little Dicky Birds for N1 and Polly, Put the Kettle On for L2.
Something that I am having to learn here is humility. I cannot get around on my own right now and venturing into the city by myself seems a little unintelligent. I can’t read anything. I am learning a few symbols and I can recognize them, but saying them is an entirely different story. I am having to rely on people more here than I ever have in my entire life. I am fairly independent, but I’m finding it very hard to be on my own here. I need others. This is something very new for me.
