Off to Penonome for practicum week in the schools. I was in the High School with five classes of about 50 10th grade boys in each class... twas quite an interesting time. But real talk, I LOVED IT it was a thrill being in the classroom teaching about gerunds and superlative and comparative adjectives, and just getting the chance to share about life in the U.S. was sweet.
The school was huge and beautiful and it is exactly what I want my site to be like, in a bigger city with a big school= fingers crossed
Our host family site was YE YE as hell (real fancy) we had air conditioning, cable tv, hot water, a flushing toilet AND wifi; it actually made me a bit uncomfortable and made me miss the simplicity of life in Santa Rita and some of the natural beauty. Our host mom actually went to U of Michigan and her daughter is there now and her son graduated from University of Pitt so they were pretty awesome- and extra plus, they have homes all over the country so we have a free place to stay anywhere we want!!! Holler
Downside of practicum week, it is exhausting and we are working from 5:30 am to 6 everyday... I could do without that
