Gym class!

put your right foot in and shake it all about

What does gym class with 50 third grade PHC kids look like? Just picture a room full of energetic smiling African girls and boys doing cartwheels, splits, bridges, playing Simon Says, and dancing the hokey pokey. This morning Caitlin and I started teaching special classes for the PHC kids at the center. The goal is to give each class at the center individual time with us interns and to expose the kids to electives they aren’t taught in their classroom. The first PHC gym class was definitely a success! It was a little hectic but the kids did learn a few things, wore off some pent up energy, and overall had a great time.

I was in my element jumping around and doing cartwheels with all the kids. Now that Caitlin and I have taught a whole gym class of 50 kids completely in Sango, I feel like we can take on anything!
