It is amazing to me how quickly these teaching weeks go by. Today, I completed half my time with this class. On this particular trip I will not be with the students on Friday, since I will be traveling. Next time, I will be able to stay through Friday and have a full five days with them.
Today, we covered less material than yesterday, but we had more discussion and I think better results. This morning the students did well overall on their quizz of the material we covered yesterday. Covering less today will, perhaps, help them tomorrow's quiz. I will say, however, that everyone scored a 100% on their memory work.
I am in earlier tonight and am pretty tired so I will be turning in soon. I have been getting up early with the help of some of the neighbors. It seems the custom here is to celebrate someone's birthday by lighting off strings of firecrackers. The evidence suggests that a lot of people in this neighborhood have aged this week. This morning's celebration began at 4:20 a.m. I vote for candles on a big 'ole birthday cake!
Thank you for all your prayers and support. God bless.

I am enjoying your reports. I'm glad your class is going well. From your reports I am learning more about what to expect next week. I hope that the early morning birthday celebrations conclude before I arrive! Keep up your good work.
