So the last day of school was just a delight, we combined all the kids and played carnival games outside- musical chairs, eat the cookie tied to the string, knock the cups over, go fish, face painting, duck duck goose, ect, and then all the children were assigned to bring cake or sandwiches or a drink, so then we munched and said farewell!! It was very bittersweet, bitter in that I will most likely never see any of the children I taught again (or even know what happens with them, since I mostly taught the kinder kids, and most 4 year olds dont exactly have fb or email adresses! But it was sweet, in that we are done teaching and off to a vacation!
Here are some pictures!

| The kinder kids decided to take down all of their teachers one by one, and I was surprised by the strength of the 4 yr olds, they took me down! |

 |
| Brother Emiliano and Maximus, my hardest but most favorite students! |
 |
| My other not-so-favorite Basic Reading girls! Cute, but whiny! |

Selima and Kamila, neither of them knew ANY English when they started with us, but by the end they has learned some, it was such a satisfying feeling as their teacher!
So it's over! I remember when I first got here in May, I thought the end would never come, but now it's here, and I can't belive how fast it's gone by! It was HARD from not knowing the language, to culture shock, to living with a host family, new food, and learning to teach the little ninos, but it was SUCH a good character building experience, and I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to come here!! |
