Week 9

After couple weeks of break, we came back to continue on working on my project.  This is the ninth week since I have started my project. That was a long break and then we had the finals and to be honest I haven't work on my project throughout this time.  I have taught Monica all the phrases that I taught to Mariela and even  a few more. Monica learn fast, but Mariela memories better.  But the good thing that I see Monica more in the school and so many times we talk in Arabic using the phrases that she have learned.  At the same time, I have noticed that Monica forget easily.  So without practicing she lose what she learned. But Mariela still remember everything even though we haven't work after a long time ago.
I always try to keep my students willing to learn and adding some fun for the weekly lesson.  Also as I like it when someone encourage me, I am encouraging both girls to learn.  I have talked to Mariela and she wants to continue on working with me on my project.  So I am thinking of plan for a day where I meet both girls together, especially that they almost know the same phrases.  Now I just want to keep on track with Mariela, and keep working with Monica to make her memories what she have learned so that she can use them easier.  I have also made the flash cards and I will give it to both girls this week.  Beside that I will try my best to make both girls memorize everything really well by the end of this month so that I can teach them the alphabet during March and in April and May we will be working on other simple words and sentences.
