We just got done with breakfast and I'm sitting in science class. Sometimes I feel like I'm more of a distraction then a help because the kids always want to sit next to me and talk rather than learn. There are 13 kids in my second grade class and they range from 7 years old to 14 years old.
The majority are 7 or 8. There is no school tomorrow because it is Independence Day in the Philippines (one of several-- they have a Chinese Independence, American Independence, and I think French Indepence Day). I get to sleep in until 7:30 am.
I wish I could speak Tagolag because I would like to be able to understand the kids better. They know basic english but it is kind of difficult to communicate at times.
So far I have memorized 5 scriptures-- Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:5, Romans 10:14, Acts 20:24, and Jeremiah 6:16. By the end of the summer I will have 26 down.
