I do not envy elementary teachers. I cannot imagine how stressful it must be to come up with multiple lesson plans a day. If you want good lesson plans, you spend hours on material and planning. If you are a terrible teacher, you don't. Both types wing it half the time as well.
I am glad to be a teacher. It gives me much more respect for my teachers beforehand.
The Australian teachers are leaving. There have been a couple of them, Pina and Mario, to whom we have gotten attached. I will miss them both. They've been a lot of fun, and while we do our own things, having a bi-weekly dinner has been great.
They've left us a few things- mostly very good memories.
Next week is our hundred year celebration. Many new people flock around on campus.
On the upside, the breadstore is open again, and I've seen a car covered in anime on campus. If that car can survive Kaifeng with all the Chinese flags (the breadstore added one) and riots in other cities, I think I will be quite safe.
