Trece Martirez Community Outreach

September 29, 2007, our schools' department had their first community outreach for this semester at Trece Martirez. We saw old faces and new, mostly new. In the grade group that Allan and I were teaching only 3 were there the last time we went to Trece Martirez. We had 7 new students! All-in-all there were 119 students! A hell of a lot more then there was last time!

I gotta tell you...I had alot more fun then I did last time. I don't know maybe its becuase there was more of them or of us. Either way I had fun.


I have to admit that I complained about having this/going to this outreach. We haven't gotten that settled in to the new semester and we already have an co-curriculum activity. I'm not saying that I didn't want to go, just that it was very sudden. I'm definately going it there was another outreach. It may look like as if we're helping out in the community, but the truth of the matter is...the community is helping us out. They're giving us a chance to practice our teaching skills. Its kind of like a pre-student teaching subject. Though I have to say the ride to and from there and from could have been less bumpy.


 At the end of the day everyone went home with their eyes closed and smiles on their faces. And come Monday everyone is going crazy over the pictures! Including me!
