class photos

I thought that since I've been here for several months, teaching, it might be about time I actually posted some pictures of what I do... My students are hilarious as always, they absolutely love having their picture taken. "Thank you Madam!"... So here's some shots of the doing some problem solving questions on sets. They are surprisingly adept at working with sets, they do a lot more work with sets in elementary and high school than we do in Canada, but they do very little problem solving. But it's suprising how a little candy and a sense of competition between groups can get the problem solving juices flowing! what was absolutely impossible to figure out on Tuesday, turned out to be quite doable on Wednesday!


Some good discussion.. Finally they're getting the idea that there's only one of me, and fifty of them! Praise be!



The right half of the class..

I love my job... I really do.
