It is going to be a long two weeks. I think I may have to take the rv out and go somewhere. I'm not bored yet by any means but I should take full advantage of the time. I am working on our trip to Chihuahua. New Mexico is too far to go and with the price of fuel we could stay out longer in Chihuahua. Still undecided, I want to do both.
I got up early and went to the spelling bee. This is the first one ever for the school and the teachers as well as the students were pretty excited. I was hoping for the parents and other students to come to the auditorium but the teachers didn't have the confidence that they could pull it off. I only oversaw the process giving input when needed. I made it clear from the beginning that it was their show.
The kids had a blast and the teachers were very proud of their hard work and all the enthusiasm on part of their kids.
Primary winners!
Secondary winners!
I go back Thursday to give a talk on the "Importance of English". This is culture week at the school and they have many events going on. I love to see schools like this where teachers, parents and students are all involved.
While we were in Spain studying spanish I realized the importance of english. We had people in our class that usually spoke 2, 3, or 4 languages but english was nearly always one of them. The second language of the class was english but of course it was frowned on to use it.
