Teaching ministry update:
The Grade 6 students did more practice on the present progressive, i.e. What are you doing?
The high student students worked on giving directions in English in their online class. Mitch and I checked the English work of the high school students before they submitted it online.
1) I assisted with teen prayer time. The
teens meet once a week for a devotional and prayer. Aaron, one of the adult
volunteer caregivers at Pan de Vida, led
with the verse 1 Corinthians 7:1.
Aaron and I talked about
the choice we must make about Jesus Christ. I brought up a recent news article in
Panama about people who do unusual acts for penance, such as having hot wax
poured on their backs and making pilgrimages to the Black Christ statue. Faith
in Jesus, not in our efforts, can only take away our sin.
Aaron and I also talked
about how now is the time to make a decision for Christ, because we dont know
when our time on earth is finished. I reminded the teens about a car collision
that occurred the previous Saturday where 4 young adults died. The teens knew 1
of the adults that died.
2) The girls at Pan de Vida
were busy with kitchen responsibilities this week. All the girls had to
clean the kitchen so Brenda didn´t do any math tutoring.
3) During the week I ate
lunch with the kids at Pan de Vida.
4) I taught English to the
adult volunteers at Pan de Vida. We meet once a week. This class started in
June.
5) English classes. The 6th graders and junior high students learned Hebrews 4:12 and reviewed Joshua 1:9. We reviewed the 10 Commandments. We went over the lyrics from the song Reckless Love.
The Grade 6 students did more practice on the present progressive, i.e. What are you doing?
The 6th graders recite the 10 Commandments in English |
Year 2 and year 3 junior high students had more practice with the past simple, i.e. What did you do yesterday?
3rd year junior high students and 1 1st year junior high student recite both the present and past tense of irregular verbs |

6) In addition to my teaching responsiblities, I continue to coordinate all the English classes. I make sure that my fellow teachers have everything they need to teach their classes.
7) A few weeks ago, I started helping my sister with coordinating the Sunday school classes at Pan de Vida. I keep a record of which kids are in class and I make sure that the Sunday school teachers have enough chairs for their classes.
8) In my free time at school, I continue to work on lesson plan organization.
