Today is colder than -40, so I only had seven children today. We celebrated Valentine's Day today, and had all of our centers with that theme. It was great!
I noticed the children speaking English a lot today. I am not sure why the sudden change in their choice of language to communicate with eachother, but it was sure nice to hear. Their language, Cree, is a very important part of their culture, and I do not want to discourage them from speaking their language. The school as a whole has said they do not want to discourage them srom speaking their language. So, to hear them choose to speak English was an important part of my day.
Their were only seven kids, about half of what I was expecting. But, the buses weren't running, so I understand. Tommorrow will be an even quieter day.
On Wednesday, I will pack up the car at 5:30 am and head off to my TA's home. Her, her son and her sister and another teacher (I am not sure who) will come in my car to Edmonton. I am happy to have the company. Colinda is a great TA and an excellent friend. Please pray for our safe travel and also for good road conditions.
