Tchr888 Meets Ecuadorian Teachers

Over the course of
this past month, my busy life as a teacher has been quite a journey. One of these
experiences is adding to my storybook the opportunity and privilege to
collaborate and learn from teacher students from South America, the Country of
Ecuador.
Learning from them has
been an amazing experience. They are currently teachers in Ecuador and are
finishing up their 6-month study abroad courses, and will be going back to work as ESL teachers! Yes! They will be going back to Ecuador and teach English
as a Second Language!
Here they are in
action!
May I present to you Mr. Fernando, a High School teacher, teaching kindergarten students for the very FIRST TIME and Ms. Sandra an multi-age elementary teacher. 
In their lesson they had to include English Language Learning strategies; while teaching a lesson about their country. 
Can I just say I was so impressed and fascinated by the content of their lesson and activities (I was learning too) I forgot to snap pictures of the activities leading up to their final project! I did learn something new about chocolate and it’s origins, but more, I enjoyed observing them as they taught their lesson. 

It made me realize how much we do as teachers when it comes to prepping and actually teaching a lesson, for kindergarten student’s. The attention span of a 5 year old… let me just say, it’s no wonder I always say, “if I could flip over and backwards to engage a student I would!” Next week I get to see them in action again! Can’t wait!
What about you? Have you ever collaborated with teachers from another country directly or indirectly? What was your experiences like? What did you learn from them? What did they learn from you? I would love to hear your stories! Hugs!!

It literally just hit me, this is my Birthday mont It literally just hit me, this is my Birthday month. 😬
🤍 We adopted a new Reading and Language Arts curriculum this year and I have been in over my head with it, but loving it.
🫠I like to try new things and really give curriculum an opportunity when it’s new (to our district) and implement it without supplementing it. I mean how will one know if it works, if we don’t try it? Right?🫣
🫶🏼Anyhow, my birthday is coming up and totally looking forward to another year of adventures, journeys, and growing! One can never stop learning 💓
