To my baby

To the little soul I carried in me, to you my little baby
Six months old you are now and I feel your kicking and ambition to be born, to breath, to play, to open your eyes to colours, to smell and to live.
My baby , your are my worry and my hope, you are my fear and my shelter.
My baby, life goes by me and I worry about you, life has no mercy on me or anyone, life is hard and tough, my little girl, I have not seen you yet, but I love you already.
My baby, life is not as exciting as you dream, but i will be there for you, I will hold your hand tight and we will pass through life together fearless.
Waiting for you baby
Waiting for your smile
Waiting for your beautiful first words

A call to my professor Roscoe

Today, just few minutes ago, I called my teacher, dr.Roscoe. He taught me African Literature back in the university, around 2005. He is a great teacher and a wonderful human being. He helped me a lot in my life.
I called him to tell him that I am pregnant. He was happy for me and gave me advice about how to be healthy and stay fit so it will help the baby too.
I felt happy when I called him but he gave him some bad news. He is leaving the college in 2015. It makes me sad and I did not know what to say to him. I said "we will miss you"

Office day

I am in my office right now and I have my laptop in front of me, a have so many things to do but I al tired and I wanna take a break and dream about traveling to Spain.
Oh
Seems impossible, I am pregnant and I know how happy people around me are but I am scared of what will come and how my life will be like. I am afraid to gain weight and to lose my body shape, I am afraid to lose myself raising the kid.
I like kids and all what i am thinking these days is how to raise a good man or a good woman.
I do not know
I hope things will turn out Ok

End of the semester

It is end. Student unluckily are absent and there is no chance I apply what I have planned to do.
I really wanted to see how my plan would go and how can I improve it. In my report, I tried to estimate what would happen.
Today I read about coding and the our students need to leand how to code in the school. I think it is a good idea to learn how to code.

Project

I have a class of 19 ten years. My plan for the project is to focus on low achievers, we have only two weeks of school. I will buy an ipad and I will download some phonetics apps that will help my students to read a little by little.

Interactive ppt and lectures

I love conducting workshops and lectures. I used my techniques to capture audience attention:
1- a critical thinking question
2- an easy question related to their experience
3- an activity ( usually group activity)

I think what is most important is the good use of whatever materials you have. I have noticed that some lecturer prepare too much but use very little and they use them poorly.
It is good to know your audience first and choose the best for them.

I also like powerpoint shows and games, the matter is the I have to book the LRC ( Learning Resource Center)

Technology plan

I am sorry for missing two weeks of the course, I feel lost somehow. However I will try to cope with the tasks for this week.
I am teaching this term, I am planning to use Powerpoint as interactive tool and help my students understand grammar more, I tried this before but this time I want to use this program to the fullest.
