Day 2 in schools

Today i was with the P5/6/7..so ages about 9-12 in one classroom..I liked it more than i thought i would and the teacher was really nice. I pretty much just sat by the computers with the kids all day helping them with their research projects on endangered animals and rainforests..and then i had to help this kid independently afterward cause he didn't have a computer at home to work on his project and he was typing so slow that i asked him if he just wanted me to do it cause it was taking hours!! Also, when two of the kids were with me on the computers they asked me if i was famous..then i proceeded to show them a picture of josh on google and they asked if he was in the professional league and then i must be a cheerleader..haha good joke! but it was really funny..and they said they like my accent. I also had to give them hints about where i lived so they could look it up in their atlas..then i had to sit in front of the class while they asked me questions..like what is it like there? What do you eat? Do you have a national flower? Whats the weather like...etc..it was fun! Anyways..i found that they teach a lot about the environment and learn a lot about what is going on in the world rather  than anything else. They also focus most of their lessons on morals and being respectful. They do not have core subjects everyday..in fact, it is pretty unorganized and just goes with the flow most of the time..
