Back to school - Blogabond

Back to school to teach another (slightly repetitive) lesson on the alphabet to Class C...tried to add interest with games such as Hangman. The kids love team games where they have to race to fill in the blanks in words or solve anagrams faster than their opponents. In the afternoons I teach with another volunteer, Thy, a Cambodian student on her school holidays, who gave me a few new ideas for tasks.

Helped paint the school walls white ready for a mural that Jess and Debs would be coming to help paint over the next couple of days. Somehow managed to end up looking like I'd sat in the paint pot and wandered around the Russian market after school without realising (the others said they "thought I already knew about it"...)

Mural painting

Another dinner at the riverside, panicked and ordered a pizza with a whole fried egg on top of it. Our bookselling friends returned for a banter (and to try and get us to buy books, obviously! Jess and Debs ended up with pretty much a full library of books to take home with them by the time they left!)
