UNDERpaid and OVERblessed: May 17, 2015
http://underpaidandoverblessed.blogspot.com/2015/05/may-17-2015.html
Thursday, May 28, 2015. May 17, 2015. It is SO hot. Take the last time you were unbearably hot. Now multiply that times 6 trillion. It's hotter here. I've never sweat this much or smelled so bad. But- it's so amazing. It is a gorgeous country, and the people are so kind. After that, we explored Senase and Berekum. It was so fun to see everything, and it really is beautiful. Then we packed up all our stuff and went to spend the night at the school. Day 1 in Senase/Akatim was a success. 9829; teacher blogs.

UNDERpaid and OVERblessed: Make-at-School Mother's Day Gift Idea!
http://underpaidandoverblessed.blogspot.com/2013/04/make-at-school-mothers-day-gift-idea.html
Wednesday, April 10, 2013. Make-at-School Mother's Day Gift Idea! My class made their Mother’s Day gifts this week! This is a project that I’ve done for three years now, and it’s always such a big hit I just had to share. It takes a little bit of effort, but the outcome is worth it, and more importantly, it’s something different that Mom probably hasn’t gotten before. So what is it? Basically home-made Chia Pets). This may seem daunting, but I’ve done it with 1. 1 knee-high stocking per kid. 5) Write the...

Monday, May 11, 2015. May 11, 2015. Everything always happens at once, doesn't it? Craig's job is really challenging for us because he misses out on lots of family time. He was gone this weekend, which stunk because #1) it was Mother's Day, and #2) it was the weekend before I leave for the next couple of weeks. It never gets any easier for me to be away from him. (I guess that means I like him, which I suppose is a good thing.). Deep breaths, right? I know everything is going to work out. In four day...

Thursday, May 7, 2015. May 7, 2015. Craig and I were talking recently about how amazing it is how God uses people in each other's lives. Before Craig and I met, I was looking into going to Africa to teach. I have always been drawn to the idea of working in Africa. But before I could get very far with those plans, Craig swept me off my feet and we got married, moved to Utah, and got lost in the humdrum of everyday life.

Tuesday, May 26, 2015. May 15, 2015. We chatted for a bit then got on our 6 hour flight to Accra, Ghana. And here we are! Landing in Ghana was interesting. We walked down some steps from the plane to a bus, which drove us to the terminal. Oh my gosh. The heat and humidity are atrocious; it's good that I'm familiar with this kind of weather! That's when I knew I was in for my next adventure. The drivers in Ghana are CRAZY! I'll let you know what happens! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tuesday, May 5, 2015. May 5, 2015. Sooo I'm a little behind on the blog. Like 2 years behind. What can I say, I've been busy! The last time I posted, the hubs and I were about to start undergoing infertility treatments. Since then, we had a successful pregnancy and our sweet baby boy just turned 1 year old last week! Pregnancy did not agree with me in the least (really- I'm a monster when I'm pregnant), but the outcome was so beyond worth it! I don't know if teaching is for me anymore. 9829; teacher blogs.

Thursday, May 28, 2015. May 18, 2015. Today has been incredible. We got to see the Akatim Village School in action for he first time and it has been so inspiring. Lauren and I spent the day going from classroom to classroom to observe the students and teachers in action. We started with "Stage 1," which is just first grade. The teacher was teaching the students about length, capacity, and mass, which I just finished teaching my class a couple of months ago. They were so much fun to watch! They were singi...
