Watching two little ones play outside the Leaning Tower of Pisa |
AH! Teaching is looking up! Yesterday we had an evaluation from the TAB organizers. They were not pleased to say the least. They watched our lesson on Aesop's fables...Afterwards they were dumbfounded about why we chose that lesson. It took us a while to explain to them that we were asked and expected to teach the fables and that it was not our choice to A) teach the fables or B) to teach in the way that we were. Once we were on the same page they congratulated us on our lessons considering what was asked of us...then things got better...They told us that they would talk to administration and change our lesson expectations. Now we get to teach language basics to the little ones and quickly finish with the Aesop's with the older ones and then start on language with them! Today Courtney and I planned three different lessons and they have all gone so well. The classrooms have been buzzing, instead of crickets...
