I officially finished my first year of teaching, in Egypt nonetheless.
As much as I gripe about this school and its contract- breaking ways, I really had a good year in the classroom. How many people can say they actually looked forward to going to work everyday?
The kids were the funniest, cutest, most innocent things ever. Look at them!
They really grew up this year. They learned to read, they learned to be tolerant and patient, they learned to be responsible.
Even though English was their second language, you would never know by how confident they were. They learned everything a kindergartner would learn in the states. They could tell you rhyming words, antonyms, and story summaries. They could tell you about evaporation and the different types of matter. They could add and subtract.
What. a. year.

First day of school!
Just before Christmas!
In their caps and gowns!
