Have I really only been with the students for two days? So much gets accomplished and we get to know each other well. Wonderful group of 19, two are male and one is set to deliver in about 3 weeks.
Some Montessori talk:
We started off with Size materials yesterday and they tested on them this morning. They also presented reports from their readings and we had a discussion, with power point on their introduction papers. We were able to represent all of the knobless cylinder extensions that Bee Pape had in her book. They loved it!
We went on to Color and more practice.
It was a wonderful day and I think they are understanding the material. When they gave reports, a few did it in Cantonese and one in Mandarin and others translated for me. Most speak very good English.
Had somewhat of a swollen ankle and foot by the end of the day. Started on the walking to the Buddha visit day but got better. Must have been on my feet too much today. Ice and homeopathic are helping.

We had another lovely Chinese take-out buffet all together for lunch. Most of them are parents of 2-3 year olds. They have taken a Montessori in the Home course. Only 4 are currently at the school. One, in particular has a wealth of knowledge. I really enjoy talking and working with them.
We had a stage 1 Typhoon warning this afternoon and there was wind and some clouds and thunder and lightning. It seems to have gone by. I feel right at home.
