Bigger class

Lucy and I have now completed our first week of teaching with all the kids. Our 23 kids are sharing a class room with two other grades who are at the other end, here you can see our class and Lucy with the others at the other end.



This is of Lucy reading out words from a text book for the kids to write down, the emphasis is on understanding the syllables. We are still finding our feet with the local teacher but generally it is going well. Erica wants the kids to do copying of lines for homework but both Lucy and I want to encourage the kids to be creative in their writing so we will try to change this next week. At the moment, we are revising with the kids the work they last year in the first grade.
