No pics! Thats right... not one!The only photos taken were of my classes and that was so I could begin to identify them..... !
First teaching day- it was full on . Interesting thing is that at this school with its many classes of 35 per week and over 1000 on the campus, we have one timetabler for high school and one for Middle School...... how about that? That is the AP who does the timetabling...... interesting thought I had as memories sliced through my mind!
And it was flat out- but it was good.
I have a a very top Biology class which will be awesome to take...... but they all seem pretty good and they are selected for this school as there are so many who wish to be there.
Left for school on the 6.a.m. bus and school began at 7.25 with HG...
and I was on duty outside
it was hot
I was hot
phew...
Home by 3.30 and off out tonight for my first Arabic lesson... a six week course so I can begin to write the alphabet

What a challenge you are facing Liz but I know you are more than up to the task. Learning Arabic will be such a great skill to add to your achievements. It's characters looks nothing like any Western language, and I know nothing of its construction. Good luck with it all. 💖
ReplyDeleteMy old friend spent 4 years teaching Human biology in Saudi from text books where all illustrations had been removed. He said sex education was particularly difficult! His enviro classes were also a challenge in that oil rich country. What an adventure you ate going to have. Love your blogs!Claire
