I didn't forget about the murse, I hope to pick up one tomorrow. Pictures will definitely be posted. Let me tell you a little bit about my teaching career which has 7 days under its belt. I teach 1st grade children. I have 5 different sections with about 45 kids in each section. That comes to about 225 students. I see them 4 times a week and average 4 class periods a day. It isn't a bad gig because they love me. I am still settling in to teaching English as a foreign language to kids who know almost none of it. Luckily, I have 3 co-teachers to help keep order in the classroom, discuss class ideas, and translate when needed. They are spread out amongst the 5 different sections.
The real teaching begins this week. We have three different classes in my area of town. I will be helping with two of them. Our area of town had a get-together as a chance for the new teachers to meet friends and announce class times. Some of my conversations with the friends here turned to deep things and my eyes were opened to see the hunger and anticipation to learn more. These are exciting times in Wuhan. Keep sending up conversations with the father. All of us here thank you for your thoughts and words. May He continue to be with you also.
