is now already a lot going on here in India.
On Monday (yesterday) we were the first time in school, but only two hours. I taught the 3rd Class in English.
Today we were three hours in the school. As of now I have the 2nd and 3 together in English that is very exciting to them to learn English because I do not speak Telugu, so we communicate only over English. But with word fragments and sign language all goes well. Besides I have the 4th Class in mathematics. I've discovered today that they have a much higher level than expected, so I have my some things look exactly how they learn it in India, for example because the division is different than ours. The 4th Graders understand almost all reasonably good English. Every day I make and Betti numbers or even Craft-hour. Here we have 2, 3, 4, 6 class, but always different combinations.
The kids are really nice, but terribly alive. It is very funny when I explain what and no one understands and knows how suddenly have a child, it all says in one sentence in Telugu and all understand it. But good ...
The Shelter is currently very quiet, which is only 4 big boys here. The other children are currently in Sabbavaram, in another project that a large Riessen has play area, palms, place, etc.. So on Monday when we came into the shelter, all the boys were there with a backpack and told us that they go on vacation. We were shocked briefly, but then of course we are happy for them.
Some children were on Saturday for 10 days (vacation) home to their parents. The eyes of the children shone really, the other kids were of course all the more sad, is also understandable.
So my normal daily routine: go
7:00
getting up 7:30 Breakfast 8:00
school (by bus) 8:45
school
13.00 Lunch 15:00
arts and crafts with the boys from the Shelter
. 16:00 we are in the shelter and play with the Guys, prepare things and go with the outdoor games
20.00 Dinner and then we prepare for yet mostly from the school.
normally so this is my daily routine, but in India is just always a lot different than you expected, but that's just so exciting.
A few funny experiences BZE. Things that are different to Austria
. The second time we went by bus, we have the same Ticketverkaeufer asked why we are only two and not three (because last year there were three volos from Austria). We have seen this man ever, and he already knows us, knows where we are, what we do, etc. ..
. in India are bought by piece and there is no note to explain this
. where if a construction site, the road sides are separated in the middle (similar to a motorway), then may be that the road is suddenly and you just come from driving a piece on the other side, but no traffic signs.
. at a crosswalk in the center is in a police officer with box and microphone and says that people across the zebra crossing the road to.
. been made at a railway gates, all vehicles go forward so that the entire street is filled ... But somehow it out but that the oncoming traffic still comes over later
. the traffic light has a Countdown for how long is green or red, the latest on all three cars go.
. the computer from where I'm sitting is packed with plastic, because otherwise everything would be so dirty.
. The most important rule: be careful what you have to three things: animals, women, children
So I am now arrived at a very in India, so read I've you have written a few things I noticed, because is slow beautiful it all normal and in later than one month, I'll no longer wonder about it.
fits with the health of me all have no problems. Otherwise I'm
with my duties very satisfied. Sure, it's exhausting and not always easy, but it was aware of.
I am currently learning the Telugu. I can already write the letters A-I. Sounds good, but it is not because the words do not write to letters, but often summarized into a label and the syllables. I'm learning to speak and AZ times a bit and then see what time will come. I prefer to have a little idea.
So I am doing great and I'm happy with the culture, lifestyle (eat with your fingers .... :-)) and especially with my job.
far as I am of a brief report. I would like to tell so much, but then I would have to write every day for an hour.
I will soon put new photos up, you'll get further in.
Kind regards
Martina
PS: Today was something special when we went out on NM from our house. It has geregnt :-). The fresh air and the few drops of rain are very pleasant. But I'm getting used to sweating even at slow all the time.
