Today the girls taught together for the first time after the departure of the other two girls. They taught grade 1, which is Lucy's normal class, but a difference for Kerry who moved from grade 3 to grade 1.
Lucy teaching the alphabet!

The girls split the class for the latter half to be able to offer the children more attention to work on their counting
Kerry: "I have definitely found the transition from grade 3 to grade 1 hard, but one that I have thoroughly welcomed. I found that with teaching a higher grade, I expect things like writing numbers to be easy for the children, as it is in grade 3. I am sure I will adapt quickly and take on this challenge head on!"
Lucy: "Today me and Kerry taught our first grade one lesson together. It was a relief for me as the class was a lot smaller than usual. They especially enjoyed drawing animals and running around impersonating tigers! Although the children can be naughty sometimes, their excitement and eagerness to please put me in a great mood!"

Tomorrow the girls have more teaching to do, in addition celebrating Rakshabandhan Festival
