School Video
My sister-in-law Brittany asked a question on my last blog post. She asked if the children have summer vacation because summer is almost on us in Zambia. Zambian schools operate on a 3 months on and 1 month off schedule. It is year around school, and they change grades in January. Here is the video that I promised. It is of a first grade classroom. Yes, all of those students are in one class and yes, there is not much work being done in that class. On other notes it is getting hot here. The rainy season starts in November, but until then it gets hotter everyday. I really want a peaceful, cool, and windy Chicago fall day right now. It only feels natural, but it is not happening. Such is life though. Peace!
