I’ve moved! To a much bigger classroom! I love love love all the new space. It is so much more light filled and colorful and I can actually have the kids work in small groups in different parts of the classroom. There are a few downsides though: I am much farther away from Sofia and Lisa now I don’t see them hardly at all. And the classroom is in the Infants building so we are with all of the teeny tiny kids. It's not perfect yet....still a work in progress!
All those woven baskets I have, (aka the basis of my organizational system) I bought from one of the mamas that sells them on the side of the street. She originally wanted 12,000 shillings for each one but I worked her down to 8,000 (roughly 4 or 5 dollars) This seriously took about 20 minutes and a lot of grumpiness on her part, but now that we have the deal I don't have to bargain any more. She actually greets me with a smile now when I show up at her stand, which is a big improvement...
