Colegio Maya

After Antigua, I spent a few days setting up my classroom and unpacking all the crap I brought from the states. (One whole suitcase of school supplies! Out of the two suitcases I was allowed.) That I already had stuff printed and laminated and ready to put up was great. It really helped with some of the beginning of the school year stress.

I’ve got a real sweet group of kids. I have a class of 13 (amazing number: enough to create small groups but not too many to handle in terms of behavior and being able to spread out in the classroom)

My school provides me with a desktop computer, projector and ipad. I looooove the ipad, projector combo. I use it literally every day. In the picture below, I was taking a picture of the kids with my ipad while projecting it on the board. 

 Recently I had my kids work on writing by creating Wanted posters and I told them they could write one about me if they wanted (as long as there was no death and no guns). Half of them choose to write about me and more than one mentioned in their description of me that I am “usually seen with an ipad”.
