Ludzeludze Primary School
We visited Ludzeludze Primary School today to practice a classroom lesson plan on Self Esteem to grades 6 & 7. While self esteem was a difficult concept to get across, we had a great time. The students here only speak English in school, but are taught by rote lecture style. The students loved the interactive activities we presented though it took a while for them to get into what we were doing. They are not taught to be critical thinkers. We will do our best to help them learn.

I hope the parents/authorities allow you to let the children develop their critical thinking muscles. Will the culture tolerate it?
ReplyDeleteNo doubt the children will enjoy the exercise and thrive on it if continued!
