We would like to up date you all on what it is we are doing at our practicum sites, so in the next few post we will be doing just that!
Don Bosco
Don Bosco is a Catholic orphanage, run be sisters and care givers. This practicum site has a very positive feel as it is evident the love both the sisters and care givers have for the children. At this site the student there has been working with the sisters in a variety of areas, such as, nutrition, language development, hearing screening, baby massage, and child development. The toddlers and infants as this site are precious and the student at this site feels very privilege to be having such an experience. The language barrier between the practicum student and the children does not seem too much like a barrier as their ability to communicate non verbally is amazing.
SDN Menegal
SDN Menegal is a public elementary school. The student at this practicum site spends the morning going to different classes teaching planned English lessons. She has taught the grade five's and six's about Canadian geography and recently the grade 3's and 4's learned about Canadian money and value. The students at SDN are really enjoying playing Red Rover and Heads up 7 up. They are also teaching the practicum student how to play traditional Indonesian games and dances.
The practicum student at SDN is finding it challenging to be fully covered in this un-airconditioned school and there is a lot of confusion and chaos most of the time. Over all the practicum student at this site is finding this experience very rewarding.
