| Moving from class to class is pretty much what the first day is all about. Learners are getting to know where their classes are. | After they've found their classes they must perfect walking in straight lines. This is accomplished through yelling, kicking and scolding. Cruel but effective. |
I was just talking with some volunteers last weekend about how easier this school year is compared to January of last year. I know what to expect (and what not to expect) and I know what I should be doing. Most importantly, I know not to stress about minor details like school schedules, lesson plans and class attendance. It will all happen somehow...
I was excited today to get to work, but somewhat unsurprised on finding that it would not be possible. We got a timetable (yeah!!) but none of my learners brought their receipts for the computer class, so no one could enter the class. Maybe next week...

| This is the science classroom. You notice the stacks of extra chairs in the back? You notice the learners sitting two-to a chair also in the back? Welcome to Namibia. | A teacher (Mr. Jo) trying to get the new eighth graders to listen to his instructions. |
