5th March – After ‘breakfast’ my second lesson was with P3 & P4. The life cycle of the butterfly.🦋 Like Kilimanjaro, life ‘cycles’ are on the primary curriculum.
I used one of the new charts I’d had made for the school, though they don’t know yet about them or the extra books I bought in Kampala soon after I arrived three weeks ago. (Where has the time gone?!)
Again the children were very attentive and responsive though I did wonder if when I was acting out the various points of the cycle my left wing must have looked broken! (As many of you know I have a torn rotator cuff and can’t lift my arm.)
As usual the children thoroughly enjoyed the ‘work’ that followed and the story I read them. I rarely see a teacher in Uganda read a book to children. I hope having the new books will encourage this.
I left them to complete their work while I went onto the last classes of the day, three nursery classes (UK pre-school & reception). My favourite! 🤗

Fun day concluded in next blog!

During the lesson I had been called out by Ibrahim as the mother of the two children whose school fees had been paid by a Vicki a supporter, wanted to thank me, actually you, for your kindness with two delicious looking pineapples!
