My cuties

Today was just super fantastic. I tried as much as I could to stay on top of my game.

I taught the kids Social Habits and specifically, Things they should play with. Thank God I came with some white papers. we resumed making paper airplanes. I gave out the A4 papers to over 30 kids who were in class. I showed them how to go about it step by step but at a point, I discovered that method was totally a lost course as some kids ended up rumpling their papers and some tearing them. I decided to make the paper airplanes for them myself, besides, We still needed to learn with it afterward.

My God, it was a very exciting but tiring process — making paper planes for all those kids amidst shouting and repeatedly telling them to be in their seats, was another work on its own.

I quickly concluded the making process because I got some help from one of my teachers. we proceeded to learn about airplanes, Who flies them, and where they are kept too.

Just when I thought our class was going smoothly, one of the kids urinated and that was where we had to wrap it up. Hahaha!

It was so exciting to see the kids enthusiastic about the class, curious, and hyperactive. Somehow, the teachers thought it was strange. I could perceive this because of the way they asked questions when they saw the kids with white papers.

Personally, I hate a boring class And so anything that tends to engage the students always excites me.

I will be going to see my Optician tomorrow to have my lense changed. I told my teacher I won't be in school tomorrow. So, that is next week for us. But regardless, I will share tomorrow’s experience.

I hope your day went well?
