the children ate my art supplies!

last week went really well again, and im finally settling into teaching :) as it will be easter soon, brittany and i decided to do some easter creative art lessons, so with the older classes we bought them an egg each. class 5 were asked to decorate their eggs with felt tip and they did a pretty good job :) after we left the lesson we decided we shud probably go back and collect the eggs jsut for the day incase they got broken, we had only been gone 5 mins and when we got back, half the kids had taken their eggs to the cooks! :( so much for taking pride in your work! haha :) so we learned from that one, and much to class 6's disappointment we drained their eggs before the lesson before they could decorate them with glue and tissue paper. they kept asking to cook them but we said they couldnt :) muahahhaha!
On the weekend we went to Accra for Henry's birthday which was pretty good but i dont like accra very much, its very very busy its a bit scary, so many people grab you trying to drag you to their taxi, shop, or to get your number so they can come visit you in england lol but we got around pretty well in the end. This week is revision week and next week is exams so hoping the kids will do well or there could be a lot of caning :S brittany and i have planned an easter egg hunt for thrusday so really excited about that :) xxxxxxx
