Can you believe it's Wednesday already? We have had a great experience with St. Mary's so far. We also are learning how to say many more words in Afrikaans! The children brighten up our days as they enter the classroom. It's going to be difficult saying goodbye on Friday. We only hope to maintain a connection with St. Mary's.
The third grade has been working very hard on their math symbols and vocabulary. They even made their own rap and move to go help them remember their math better!
For their hard work, they were able to go to the Company Gardens and perform there as they ate their lunch.
A group of students gathered together to practice their dance routine. They are selected by a teacher and are performing for a special guest tomorrow, Thursday. Dance is a component of the school and this is influenced by the art culture of South Africa.
We are so proud of Emma and the students! They have been learning how to cha cha and today they learned how to turn! We are so proud of everyone!
Jen was very excited to join in on the fun! Luckily her dance partner was able to show her the dance!
The children's dancing also got to Ashley and Emily and they quickly joined the group! They picked up on the dance!
Jen, Ashley and Emily weren't the only ones dancing. Lisa couldn't wait to join in!
The students worked so hard and were awarded with free dance minutes! They took advantage and quickly demonstrated their amazing dance moves! Of course our girls had to show them their moves too!
We have had such a good time with the teachers and students. We decided we needed to show how grateful we were to have the opportunity to work with them. Tomorrow's lunch is on us! We had a team preparing the lunch. We hope the teachers will enjoy an American styled lunch!
