Hello all. I finally found an internet cafe that is reliable; but can't upload my pics for some reason ... SOOOO ... tomorrow (if I have time) I will come back over here and upload my pics from my own laptop. Anyhow ....
Today we started off in our first school - Emafini Primary (Grades R-7). I can't remember what R stands for, but it's their version of kindergarten. The children were all so well behaved and presented themselves well in their uniforms. 60% of the students at this school came from the Black townships, and the other 40% came from a more affluent, "middle class" township; but it is to be noted that the more middle class township would be considered our housing projects/trailer parks in the US.
The kids pretty much supervised themselves with very few discipline problems. The kids monitored themselves in the classrooms and during recess. I took plenty of pictures and video of the children. I spoke with a 7th grade class and they were very excited to meet an American.

Hi Mr. Kato,
ReplyDeleteSounds like my kind of school!!! You know how I am about behavior in the classroom. I know that this is an exciting experience for you. From one "BRONCO" to another I am proud of you.
