June
6-10th.
This
week was more relaxed and less stressful now that reports are done. I
got mine back from my reader who approved them. I fixed up a couple
of typos and then completed the last few progression points for the
subjects that Carol, Libby and I had missed.
I
spent a good part of the week teaching them about the First Fleet and
Australian history as well as about their system of government which
is very similar to ours. The only differences I found is that they
have a state government and we have a provincial one and their
senators are elected not appointed.
On
Friday night I was invited to Don's house to have dinner with his
family. I had already met Veronique and his daughter Jennifer is in
my class, but I met the second son Christopher and their new pet
rabbit. We had a delicious dinner and a good talk about teaching, traveling and the problems of the world.
