Almost finished with my practicum, trying to take in a deep breath and let out a huge sigh, but I can't. Not with my lecturer planning to come everyday next week to observe me .. and friends....
I'm seriously gonna burst, just trying to hold it in.... coming up with lesson plans which is both interesting to the student and also educational is very hard with these kids, them having a very short attention span and a very limited scope of what they are interested in.
Anyway I did something about rice today, and true to what I expect they are city slickers to the bone, some have never seen paddy fields... so they got a nice input on everything rice, the facts and figures and the hows.... gonna teach them something about bridge next week. Maybe put in some spark and cause some of them to be engineers and architects...
Till next time, adieu 
Hey Karl, your lesson sounded fun and experiential,alright! Fill me in with that rice info anytime!
Good luck in your practicum!
not really that fun, but it is supposed to educational for them. most of my stuff is taken off the internet.
