ocean jumps!
check it out! So, yesterday I began my 4 week practicum at a high school in Dapto ( a nearby suburb) called Kanahooka High. It sounds made up, but its totally true!
I am delivering my first lesson tomorrow on debating. I have never really done debating, so this should be interesting. I am teaching a grade 7 English class- here High School starts in year 7.
A few interesting things:
* My supervising teacher is funny and can not seem to get my name straight- I have been introduced as Mr Kee-yawn, Mr. Mac-Kewan, Mr Coon and Mr Quinn. Hilarious.
* There was a fight yesterday, and all of the teachers ran to watch just like the students do....
Thats pretty much it that is appropriate for the interweb, let me know if you want further details!
Things are generally good here too- roommates are still awesome. Some friends and I are planning an awesome road trip for Easter Break (we get a week off) so we are heading down to Melbourne and Adelaide. Some potential highlights include some crazy music festival (Ben HArper and John Mayer) a surf competition, Kanagroo Island and Bells Beach!
I
also just got a care package from the Mountain Residence Life STaff- totally made my week! I have already put it up in my room and I have posted the picture here as well as some pictures I forgot to include last time.
So yeah, thats it from me! I am missing home a lot and I am thinking I will be home for Christmas. (Before I thought I might travel until the money ran out, turns out it might be sooner than later!)
Love you all very much! Keep in touch!
