Day 10-
Another day of building rockets. In this case, there was high highs and low lows. One group was made up of students who could barely speak English, and spoke completely different languages, and they connected! I was a bit surprised. One student said to me "He speaks a little spanish!" I asked "As much as me?" The student responded "Even less." I'm learning, but the students assume my progress is faster than it is, so they'll come at me with long sentences, that I catch the gist of, but responding is...harder. Anyway, the chaos was a bit more manageable in this class, but it's not my forte in terms of coping skills. I think I'm the kind of person who's a planner, surprising no one.
