| A Few students in Grade R Classroom |
Day two in grade R (kindergarten)! I love walking into this small classroom where there are 42 sets of eyes twinkling that I know are ecstatic to see me and wondering what I am going to teach them today! It is a wonderful and welcoming feeling that gives me chill bumps! Today I have sung the days of the week song for what feels like 20 or 30 times! However, it is exciting that most of them now know the days of the week in English. There first language is Xhosa, so I am not sure how much they understand when I am talking with them! They have been very receptive when I have been talking with them today!
I had the unique experience today of passing out coloring books. I never thought that passing out these children’s books could be so complicated! The challenge was in the task of pronouncing all 42 of their names! They are all very unique and pronouncing them with the correct Xhosa sounds was very challenging! I know that it is going to improve as time goes on. I am excited to improve and continue to learn them more.
They have to review the date everyday just like we do in the states, so maybe tomorrow we will learn the today is song! They love to sing, so I think that they will love that!
