Some of you may have been wondering what I’ve been up to for the last couple of weeks and why I’m staying in South Africa so long.
Well…I’m here in a REALLY small town volunteering at a children’s home. During the evenings (and sometimes during the day now that the kids are on spring break), I’m teaching the 28 older kids. Mostly I’m doing a lot of reading/language arts skills and also helping with their basic math skills.
I have to say, it’s been a bit difficult sometimes as not only is there a wide range of ages but also a wide range of skill levels within each age. But…it’s coming along. And we’ll see where we’re at two to three weeks from now…
