Supper with Team Ohio

This morning we began with our normal routine, the girls and I heading to the toddler house and Noah heading off to the grandecitos and then meeting up at breakfast.  After breakfast the girls went back to the toddler house, Noah went to work and then I had to go back to our room to prepare lessons for Bachillerato 1 and Bachillerato 2.  I would be teaching for 3 class periods today. 

School began at 7:30am and I had back-to-back periods for Bachillerato 2.  It seems math class for them only meets on Thursdays, and each class period is 40 minutes.  We got through all of the notes (theory) for limits and then 1 example before that the class periods were over.  There were 2 ladies from the Ohio team who came into the classroom to help out the students if they got stuck.  With 20 students in the classroom, and talking about limits (something the students had never heard of before), it was nice to have the extra help and support.

I went back to the room to work on more math prep until the other class began (in Bachillerato 1) and then headed back to the school once again to tackle that lesson.  We got through a lot of definitions of terms with parabolas (vertice, domain, range, quadratic equation, etc) and then I set the students up to do some practice problems.  They have 4 problems for homework due next week Wednesday.

Noah told me that he painted at the horse barn today...some of the rafters?  And we found out that we were invited to supper up at the team house, which is always a joy.  Noah enjoyed the food up there as they served scalped potatoes with ham, salad, fruit and freshly made buttered buns.  It was a great way to end the night.
