So I absolutely love it here! :-) And my first day was great, the kids are wonderful for the most part but they are so cute and so sweet! We have 18 kids but one kid has not been here for the first two days so we might only have 17. They are all different types of kids and they are entertaining.
The first day was a half day and I mostly watched, but I did go over some of the rules with them. Then today, I interacted with each child, I was checking their school supplies to make sure they had everything. Then after lunch and recess I got to read story with them. We did inferencing about what we think is going to happen next and what exactly was going on in the pictures. I only read a few pages and told them we would have to wait till tomorrow to find out what happens the loved it. Then we worked on reading and writing, the first few lines of a poem.
As for things out side of school Cherise and I had a total girls night! Right after schoolo we went to the phone and internet store only to get annoyed and find out that we are not not schedule to have the phone till well today and the internet ont he 3rd (GRRR). Oh well right. So then we went home and decided to indulge ourselves in some German culture with a Greek spin. We had a few beers and watched Mama Mia on sing-a-long version! :-) Yes we both realized we did not have much singing talent and we both decided it didn't really matter last night.
Overall, this is an amazing experience and it makes it more enjoyable to know how much love and support I have from everyone back home! Thank you for staying interested and reading my blog. We are going to Berlin this weekend so be sure to look for an updated after that and maybe before! :-) Pictures will be up later today or on THURSDAY ;-)
