We Begin

Our morning began with a brief meeting with Dorota. Then we all shared in a delicious breakfast of crepes filled with cheese.  Tomorrow’s activities will include a trip to Siedlce in the afternoon to meet with the county official.  Today is the first day of classes and everyone is excited to begin interacting with their classes.

The four of us enjoyed our first day and agreed that the last period of the day would be shared singing and perhaps dancing in the tent.  We will all contribute a song and teach it to the group of students.

After obiad, we met briefly with the entire group of teachers and each of us shared a teaching technique which had worked well for us today.  Lori described a cut and paste activity, Sara described having the students draw their face and label parts, Lynn shared a technique for eliciting sentences, and Carol spoke about a conversational  lesson  Dorota offered a ride to Kotuň for anyone interested.  Lynn and Sara rode to town, explored, and walked back to Reymontówka. 

We enjoyed kolecja with Iza and Kamil and their two little sons.  Later Sara, Lynn, and Lori observed the camp initiation evening activities.
