20080728 Nat - Um Awesome :D


We just finished the second day of class, it was great, I am going to miss these kids when i leave :(. Sorry if i don't type a lot today i really want to get to bed so I'll keep this short and sweet. At the moment Jonathan, Nhat and George are falling asleep while they are planning for tommorow's lesson (slackers! :P). We taught laughing and crying vowels in the last 2 days and basic conversation that would be used to keep you alive :D (how to take a bus, how to find a store, etc.). On the first day i did not see these kids smile much... but when we left they were grinning from ear to ear. My teaching team consists of Shirley, Steve, and myself. (If my name started with an S then we would be S3!) <-- (ya im a geek). In class the children cannot pronounce any TH, Z, P, and L words, also any word that has more than 3 syllables. You really see the children's true colours when they play games, they aren't completely focused on english.
Thank G for safety, peace and bonding amongst the team. We were rained out today so we couldn't play games.. instead we showed the kids Nemo and The Incredibles... they loved it :D
I'm tired now and Jonathan (my roommate) is trying to sleep. By the way the Lord of the Rings thing.... get Andy or Nhat to post some pics... or you can email me for them :D (really funny action shots).
um... i love ya guys ... keep p.ying for me :D
signing out,
Nat
