Our News

It was such a refreshing and fun way to reset and prepare for the week ahead.

What did I read this week?:

I've currently been reading a book called The Book of Joy. It is a book about a conversation between the Dalai Lama and Archibishop Desmon Tutu. I love this book because it talks about focusing in on our similarities as human beings, compassion, and the importance of choosing joy every single day.

What games or sports did I play this week?:

This week, along with my students, I played many games and sports. As it is currently football season for the primary schools, I played or coached football everyday. We had an official tournament on Tuesday for both the boys and girls teams, and have the second part this upcoming Tuesday.

I also coached volleyball this week and played a lot of games with the lower division in PE. One of the favorite games thus far has bean a game called "Beans". It's a fun and easy game the younger students love. I call out a certain type of bean such as string bean, jumping bean, jelly bean, or crazy bean, and they have to act it out.

Other news from this week:

No other news from this past week, but I have three birthdays next week for my host parents' grandkids. They are turning 8, 5 and 1! I will have lots of parties and piñatas coming up this next week, which I am looking forward to.
