Today was a good day. Aside from one hard to manage class, everything went smoothly. The kids, however were a bit confused with who is who. They kept coming up to us and saying, are you Ms. Roxanne or Ms. Darcia with their adorable Spanish accents. (N.B. The Hondurans have trouble pronouncing Dawnelle's name so they chose to call her by her middle name, Roxanne). Most of them are super kind...offering snacks and saying things like "Meez, I love you" or "Meez, you are beautiful". So cute! So teaching ain't so bad after all. There will be rough days but its good to focus on days like this.
After school it was another game of futbol. I (Darcia) scored two goals and Dawnelle discovered her talent as the goalie....she is good! I love the sounds of the game..hearing chants like "gemela, gemela" or shouts of "duro" or "arriba, arriba". Our futbol games will be twice a week so by the end of the year we should be pros (*fingers crossed*).
What's duro mean?
