Kyle's kenya experience day seven
Mon 24th October - 6.36pm by Kyle Burtenshaw
Todaty was yet another great day in paradise. It was a normal school day today and a day where I got the opportunity to teach my first classroom lesson. I taught maths with standard five (11 year olds), in a lesson that I had prepared for thoroughly before I came out and had help from Mrs Stewart to plan and Mrs Sharpe who very kindly provided me with worksheets :). I thoroughly enjoyed the lesson and was happy to see that the students not only grasped the concept of it but the said they preffered he method I taught them to their own. After doing that lesson, Ihad free periods for the rest of the day which I used partly to watch the kindergarden kids relaxing in the afternon, which was very sweet.I also got the chance to show the kids my I pod at break and lunch,which I used to shosw them Michael jackson music videos (which to my delight they requested for and enjoyed a lot)n and wrestling games and songs which they were also very enthusiastic about. I really enjoyed being able to share the things I enjoy with the kids and see the look on their faces when they played games on the I pod. So, today was another great day that ocverall alowed me to bond more with some of the kids.

Hey Kyle!
Really pleased to read that you got the chance to teach some of the maths that you planned. I am really chugged that the students preferred your method, that says a huge amount about how well you taught them :)
It was lively that you got to share your MJ videos with some of the children, but Wrestling games? Really? Lol ;o)
Take care
KES xx

Hey miss, it was a really good experience to show the kids a different method of maths as they seem to really take it in and understood it really well. I enjoyed showing them my MJ vids AND wrestling games, which they requested themselves!;) And timbre, itss good to see you commenting again, i appreciate what you said as it is a very nice thing to say :). Hope you and mum and dad are ok xx
