A successful day
at Takitumu! We are both feeling like we are getting in the groove of the
school and the children. Steph had an opportunity to observe the grade one
classroom, sing songs with the children, and spend time individually with them.
We continue to work with the children in pairs on their reading and to read
aloud to them as a class. We joined them in their afternoon break running races
across the field, frolicking to and fro in the wop wops! After school we toured
the circumference of the island via the bus, pinpointing future excursion
destinations. After rest time we were treated by GV to a lovely beachside
dinner at a local restaurant where we were so lucky to observe a whale
breaching.
Message of the
Day:
“Don’t judge success by the harvest that you reap but by the seeds that you sow.”
Words
of the day: wop wop = boondocks
ice block = popsicle
